This month's Daisuki Newletter appeared in my mailbox today, giving me another chance to see what Altavista's Babel Fish would come out with.

Nothing that made any sense.

So it's a good thing they included the cover, or I'd have missed "JUDITH PARK IST ZURUCK Y SQUARE PLUS" a continuation of Y Square, that much I could make out of the Babel Fish Babble.

Despite the fact that Judith Park has an entry in the Lambiek Comiclopedia: http://www.lambiek.net/artists/p/park_judith.htm

Her work isn't readily available to the English speaking/reading Market. And few works from European creators ever get released, aside from Tintin & Asterix. There was a short Period when AOL Time Warner/DC Comics were selling Bandes Dessines from Humanoids, but they stopped doing that for some reason. You can still buy the books that they've already published, but there's nothing new getting released.

Yes all this ranting about the lack of international comics came from seeing Judith Parks name on the cover of a Magazine I'll probably be unable to buy (it's hard enough getting what i'm buying right now as it is), anyway, you can check out her site to find out why I'm upset at: http://www.judithpark.com/

It's currently down for maintenance, but there's the eternal promise that it will be back up within a week. So in the meantime, you could always check out her "Junk Area" at: http://ju.bananajuice.de/
