These are fantastic! I love Facts of life, so bittersweet, in a way. Unmasked made me laugh out loud, and Fantastic Four made my heart melt. Will definitely have to continue checking them out.

Indeed, and bummer indeed but i think that in Europe this kind of book have more audience (and more publishers that willing to pay for it). I hope one day it will spread to other languages.
