Page Thirty-Three
Panel One Caption: The sheaves of electrons of the swords bionics disabled the vampires’ wings, depriving them of their natural radars of flight...
Gargo: I am with the shelter of your evil spells! I am the brute force!
Panel Two Caption: To go face to face with the winged pack, Klone turned into a bird of combat...
Panel Four Caption: In the fist of Gargo, the metal bludgeon was nothing more than ashes...
Panel Five Caption: As if struck by a stupor, the monster fell down on his knees...
Blackstar: To the rampart, Klone! The Golden Conch remains with me!
Only one page to go for this particular story!
This story definately ends in a 'to be continued' as well - in fact, it even says 'next week' so I really wish I knew what issue number this was from, it would be a help when trying to track down other issues.

Final page of the scans Barbarian posted (but were taken down as per proboard rules)! Page Thirty-FourPanel OneCaption: Lava Loc and its Crystal Lynxes folded under the assaults of the sword and the attacks of Klone-Jaguar... Lava Loc: With me, my robot wolves! Panel TwoCaption: Lava Loc turned the heels... Lava Loc: Overlord! Overlord! Panel ThreeCaption: Vizier, in front of the screen, glappissait (Sly? Crafty?) like a fox... Vizier: Overlord! You are our last rampart! The earth man carries the Golden Conch! Panel FourOverlord: The pack of the monsters betrayed me, but I, Overlord, the master of evil, remain upright! Panel FiveOverlord: I await Blackstar in the court of the palace... the fires of the sky will light the combat! I am invincible! Panel SixCaption: Next week: “The Shock of the Swords”! Caption: The magnetic storm crashes to pieces the sky of the Ice Palace... Caption: Will Blackstar escape this hell alive, to give the Trobbits the Golden Conch which contains their more remote history?...
So I couldn't work out what glappissait ment, but given the context (like a fox), I'm guessing it is something like crafty or sly. Also, while this may be the end of the pages we had posted before, I have a good lead on scans of other Pif Gadget Blackstar stories, which I will start working on as soon as possible! I will take this translation process over to the Planet Sagar Yahoo group when I start on more stories, but will let everyone know here when I post anything I really want to get these stories archived for all Blackstar fans to enjoy! (And if I can get the Pif Gadget scans, then there is all the fun of tracking down the Edition Lugs Blackstar comic and the Greek minicomic(s) )

Storylines like this remind me how absolutely ridiculous fantasy can get sometimes. You don't think the Trobbits have their OWN oral histories, myths, legends, heroes, etc? All cultures preserve their own history. Why does theirs even need a physical object?

Given how bad the Trobbits were at holding on to anything important in the cartoon, it is just asking for trouble that they keep their history in a Conch shell, too... To be fair, it could be that the shell contains special knowledge - not all stories and traditions are shared with all memebers of a culture (depending on the culture). The conch is obviously a mystical object that could contain some of the more mystical secrets that are ment to only be revealed to a select few Trobbits. But that's probably just overthinking a comic that appeared in a weekly childrens magazine and was based on a kids cartoon and toyline I don't think anyone is expecting these stories to be great works of literature, but they are an interesting and unique supplement to the world of Blackstar.

Damned, all the scans disappear. I have no solution for the moment, sorry guys. I will try to come here more often and find a way to show you all the Pif Blackstar stories in the right order... here a pics with all the pif gadget magazine with Blackstar stories (exept the second, i have only the pages) On the top left to right : -Pif gadget n°846 story : "Le naufragé du cosmos". -Pif gadget n°852 story : "La forêt de cristal" -Pif Gadget n°854 : "La tempête de feu" -Pif gadget n°859 story : "Le monstre de boue" -Pif gadget n°860 story : "La flûte de magie" -Pif gadget n°866 story : "La conque d'or" -Pif gadget n°867 story: "La conque d'or: la meute des monstres" -Pif gadget n° 868 story : "La conque d'or: le choc des épées" -Pif gadget n°873 story : ""Le territoire des vampires" -Lug Strange : "Blackstar : L'étoile noire" I could be wrong, but i think it's all the Blackstar french stories.

If you could get high(er) quality scans of all the stories that would be great Barbarian! And we are all prepared to be patient for such a great gift to the Blackstar community! There are, however, scans of all the stories up over at the Planet Sagar yahoo group, and I have translated all the Pif Gadgets into english (roughly). They have been collected through a variety of sources though so they vary in quality and consistency.
Very good to have confirmation that those are all the Pif Gadget stories!

Well the story is the mud monster which is a Pif story, looks like a reprint edition - would still be very interesting to investigate - this is an interesting find

Yeah, maybe all the pif gadget stories were reprinted in comic books. It's that price minister site again... I've tried a lot of times but can't still work it out...

Google 'Blackstar le monstre de la boue' and it will actually bring up a few different sites for it, you might find it somewhere else a little easier to work than PriceMinister seems to be?
