    Wow, very interesting.
    I’ll have to pay more attention, my next read-through.

      I recommend the german collectors edition published by Splitter. It has not only the most beautiful print but also quite personal making off sections at the end of each volume. You could easily snip and drop those into an online image to text converter and then feed them into deepl. Sounds more cumbersome than it is, in fact it just takes a few clicks.

        Oh gosh, I tried that with some Italian and Dutch stuff this past summer and hated it.

        I don’t know if I told you before, but part of the symptoms of this disease is that my wrists, fingers, feet and back get sore very easily. It’s part of why (even when I have a desk monitor) I can only really sit for about 20min at a time before being in pain. Combine that with being low energy and it’s a total PITA. So most of the time I have to lie in bed and use my left hand for mouse, since my right is usually too sore.

        Not trying to complain too unnecessarily, but I would not recommend this disease, lol. Anyway, thanks for the rec! Maybe a ~year from now if/when my French is ‘good enough,’ I can try working on German and check out the special editions you speak of. ^^
