Votre voisin est-il un vrai Bidochon ? Voici enfin le livre qui répond à cette question. Christian Binet s'est confié à Jean-Paul Tibéri pour évoquer un long parcours semé d'embûches qui le conduisit à la gloire et à la sérénité. Il répond aux interrogations essentielles : où ? quand ? comment ? et pourquoi ? Tout savoir sur Binet. Tout savoir sur les Bidochon. Tout savoir sur la vie, la mort, le loto et le prix du pain. 200 dessins inédits en album. Cet ouvrage protège la couche d'ozone !
Le 13 juin 2006, Marion Larat, 18 ans, voit sa vie basculer. Peu de temps avant de retrouver son petit ami et des amis, elle commence la lecture d’un album des "Bidochon" puis se rend dans sa salle de bain. C’est là, à environ 20 heures, que Marion s’écroule sur le sol. Son père la découvre peu après et l’emmène aux urgences. Le verdict tombe : AVC massif. Dès lors, le parcours de Marion devient un combat pour retrouver sa locomotion et l’usage de la parole. Un médecin établit comme cause la prise quotidienne de la pilule qui peut, dans de très rares cas, provoquer un AVC. Dès lors, comment peut-on se reconstruire quand vous devez admettre que vous n’êtes plus valide ? Un témoignage puissant raconté avec humour (malgré tout) et humanisme par Christian Binet.
"Known as France's Ninth Art, the bande dessinee has a status far surpassing that of the equivalent English-language comic strip. This publication, one of the first predominantly in English on the subject, provides a thorough introduction to questions of BD history, context and bibliography. This book supplies an introduction to the BD that will be of use to students and researchers at all levels. In addition, the format of the individual case studies provides in-depth analysis allowing the reader to grasp specific examples in terms both of their place vis-a-vis the evolution of the BD and, more generally, of the wider role they play within French and Francophone cultural studies."--BOOK JACKET.
In English-speaking countries, Francophone comic strips like Hergés's Les Aventures de Tin Tin and Goscinny and Uderzo's Les Aventures d'Asterix are viewed—and marketed—as children's literature. But in Belgium and France, their respective countries of origin, such strips—known as bandes dessinées—are considered a genuine art form, or, more specifically, "the ninth art." But what accounts for the drastic difference in the way such comics are received? In Masters of the Ninth Art, Matthew Screech explores that difference in the reception and reputation of bandes dessinées. Along with in-depth looks at Tin Tin and Asterix, Screech considers other major comics artists such as Jacque Tardi, Jean Giraud, and Moebius, assessing in the process their role in Francophone literary and artistic culture. Illustrated with images from the artists discussed, Masters of the Ninth Art will appeal to students of European popular culture, literature, and graphic art.

Edward Bak; contributions from Momeregulars such as 2006 Eisner Award Most Promising Newcomer nominees Jonathan Bennett and R.Kikuo Johnson, as well as Tim Hensley, David Heatley, Paul Hornschemeier, Anders Nilsen, Sophie Crumb, Kurt Wolfgang, Andrice Arp, Martin Cendreda, Zak Sally and Gabrielle Bell.
Whereas in English-speaking countries comics are for children or adults 'who should know better', in France and Belgium the form is recognized as the 'Ninth Art' and follows in the path of poetry, architecture, painting and cinema. The bande dessinée [comic strip] has its own national institutions, regularly obtains front-page coverage and has received the accolades of statesmen from De Gaulle onwards. On the way to providing a comprehensive introduction to the most francophone of cultural phenomena, this book considers national specificity as relevant to an anglophone reader, whilst exploring related issues such as text/image expression, historical precedents and sociological implication. To do so it presents and analyses priceless manuscripts, a Franco- American rodent, Nazi propaganda, a museum-piece urinal, intellectual gay porn and a prehistoric warrior who's really Zinedine Zidane.
