Wonder Woman & Harley Quinn: The Forbidden Gift is a new comic book/graphic novel that has been created and is published from French publisher Urban Comics. Written by Sylvain Runberg, and drawn and coloured by Miki Montlló. Wonder Woman & Harley Quinn: The Forbidden Gift is 120 page original full story to be published by Urban Comics on the 6th of September 2025. As for an English translation? Well that may take a while… as has the comic book as a whole. Amongst the warrior sisters, the Amazons of Themyscira, their society is "torn apart over the fate of one of their number, who has mysteriously become pregnant" as "Harley Quinn arrives on the island in search of asylum!"
Miki Montlló writes "Finally! We can announce a date for Wonder Woman & Harley Quinn: The Forbidden Gift. It has been a long way, the book was finished a year ago and the project started in 2020 but my friend Sylvain and myself are very pleased with the book releasing this year. – The serenity of the island of Themyscira is in jeopardy. At a time when the cohesion of the Amazons is being tested by the pregnancy of one of their own, they also have to deal with a request that is surprising, to say the least: Harley Quinn, former companion of the sinister Joker, fears for her life and asks the Warrior Sisters for asylum and protection. Will the sisterhood survive this double crisis? And what role will Wonder Woman play in its resolution?"

Now why is the French translation hosted on Webtoon SO much better than the official English translation, holy shit...(I know the bar is not high, but still...Having access to such an improved alternative on Webtoon itself...)
#tower of god#gotta post some excerps if even only for my own reference/easy enjoyment because hello???#not only am I sure that they're straight up closer to the text but it's also just...so much more epic as a reading experience??#(I've only read all the Zahard and most of the Traumerei scenes so far but there is still so much stuff that's just...better lol)#Wish I was more fluent so I had to stop and look up words less fequently but c'est la vie#highly recommend to anyone capable of moderate french for sure though as said#cannot speak for anything beyond the Zahard/big lore and Traumerei sections so far but highly optimistic#(now obviously some stuff is the same regardless of translation. but for anything beyond the very basics#even seeming minor differences in expressing the same thing just feel so much better here...#“Zahard quickly developed feelings for her” vs “right from the start Zahard had a crush on her” as just one example#but there are also many scenes where it's 1) less ambiguous 2) added extra meaning)

I can't really claim +Anima as a particularly well-written manga - I think it does much better as a series of vignettes or one-shots than it does when it tries to have an overarching narrative - but since it was particularly hard to find scans of this series that weren't in broken English (with no shade, translation is a tricky job, but since the story is already kind of weak, the broken translation made things harder to follow) I thought I ought to at least link the scans that use the Tokyopop translation (The first two volumes are different but extremely close to the Tokyopop translation, and everything onwards is just taken directly from Tokyopop).
I do think I could say I recommend this series, with some stipulations of course. This is a fantasy series that takes inspiration from North America rather than Western Europe, so... It does a very messy job at portraying indigenous people (definitely more in an ignorant way than in a malicious way), but does at least try to couple that with a "colonization and bigotry bad" message. This series is mostly about childhood trauma, being othered from society, finding your place and learning to accept yourself. And I think, in that sense, it does a very good job at connecting you to the main four characters, especially if you're marginalized in some way.
#This is really mostly just being posted to preserve the link I don't really care if people read this series or not#because I don't need my fixations to be popular in order to enjoy them lol#honestly I feel like this would do numbers among latin american zoomers but alas I cannot find a spanish translation#i did find a FRENCH translation when looking though. But I'm not sure if I could find it again because I never saved the link.#But yeah if you're curious then go right ahead#+Anima

how many languages do you speak? :o
That's a very cruel question to ask a multilingual person, I have never spoken a language in my life
#okay to reblog#for my fellow multilinguals <3#I'm from the Netherlands and Dutch is my mother tongue#I'm close to fluent in English#my French is an embarrassment. meaning I can understand enough to get by and to correct google translate but can hardly speak it#my German is appalling. meaning I can read it okay because it is similar to Dutch but cannot understand it when spoken nor speak it#and I /wish/ I spoke papiamentu but I never learned more than a few words#beneath-thestyx#for the record I don't mind the question at all ^^ (but I /am/ deeply embarrassed about my french)

I have so much beef with Tolstoy rn. Started War and Peace and reading the stupid little translations of the french at the bottom of my page is deeply irritating. It is not even a big deal but I wish to fight Tolstoy over it. I do not care about the french language I stopped taking the class in high school for a reason it was forced upon me for 6 ish years and I was finally free except for my new interest in RUSSIAN literature. Also can't wait for Napleon to show up love to see it (I am not even three pages in)
#war and peace#leo tolstoy#why is it french#i know its more accurate or whatever but I literally cannot read french and the translations are so small#russian literature

Embarrassing confession is i have read it as “jeen” since 2017 because i forgot how french people work and i am still reading it as “jeen”. Just realised that zane calls jean johnny because the pronunciation of jean should sound close to john.
#aftg#jean moreau#i swear i am smart i just cannot undo years of reading the name wrong#i get to hate crime the french a little i think.
