* BD = "Bandes dessinées"
* BDT = Bedetheque
* GN = graphic novel
* LBK = Lambiek
* LC = "Ligne claire"

Bleu à la lumière du jour has a very haunting, noir-ish feel to the art. The dialogue is sparse, making the big, silent panels even more exaggerated in their quietude. I am still learning French, so I am slowly reading/translating it piece by piece, as sparse as the dialogue is, but am relishing soaking in the sumptuous atmosphere that Gonzalez has sculpted in these panels. Definitely highly recommended.
Haha, close! According to Google Translate: "Blue in Daylight". I used my French dictionary and was thinking "Blue in the Day".
I was looking specifically for BD with minimal text as well. That, and comics written for children. Oh man, A Gift for a Ghost looks amazing. I have to say I really am loving Gonzalez' style. I'll have to check out his other stuff soon.
If you are wanting the physical copy of Bleu, Stuart NG has it for $30 I believe.
For sure! I used to lurk over a /r/bandedessinee. It's nice that this community is here, since I try to avoid Reddit at all costs these days. I'll definitely be around :D
