resolved French comic about popular fictional characters going to therapy Print Comic
I'm trying to recall the name of this parody comic series in France. The gist of it is a number of illustrators, cartoonists, and artists will take a well-known character from pop culture, and they'll draw them going to therapy, specifically with a therapist listening to whatever problems they are going through related to their franchise/TV show/what have you.
The first volume for this series had a red cover; Mickey Mouse, Batman, Mario, and UFO Robot Grendizer are floating over each other, while a chaise longue is on the floor beneath all of them.
(I also recall their being a Tumblr blog that hosted some of these drawings, but I can't find this either).

In this strip, Jon is telling Garfield that he sometimes can't tell if he's happy or angry. Garfield smiles normally and says that now he's happy, then smiles the same way but now his teeth are sharp and says that now he's angry.
resolved Fashion Manga where lady gets tutored by man Print Comic
Manga I read in my teens two volumes in; I know for a fact that one of the American publishers of the 2000s licensed it.
Basically it’s about some teenage/adult? Girl who wants to get better at picking up dates, so she seeks the help of some fashion expect. He had black hair I believe.
In the 1st volume, she wears an outfit that the fashion tutor to an admirer, but he says “something came up”. She heard him on the phone criticizing her outfit, and he finds out immediately . She almost gets kidnapped by this guy, but the fashion tutor saves her.
There’s also a big plot about her falling in love with and giving up a himbo to the fashion tutor’s sister.
At the end of the 2nd volume, after a basketball game, she realizes she has feelings for her tutor.
resolved Manga about little vampire girl and her adult human companion(SOLVED) Print Comic
So I'm making a list of manga I read during my developing years (1 to 18), and I'm trying to remember the name of this vampire manga I read as a kid.
It's about this little vampire girl and her human friend/guardian/companion she has around. I only recall the first few chapters of it as that's all I had a chance to read, but I remember one distinctly:
It involves the little vampire girl meeting up with a friend who's a little vampire boy at a hotel. He tells her you can control human minds by looking to their eyes, something he did for the human servant he now has.
Later on,s he gets curious and decides to do that with her human friend. After doing so, he wonders if it worked, and decides to test it out by asking him to get her some cake.
She's still unsure, so she then requests her "master" kiss him, to which he obliges. She then gets freaked out and starts crying, only for her human friend to reveal he was pranking her.
That's about all I can remember, other than the fact that "vampire" was in the title of the manga I think.

Edited by dutchguy1986resolved Comic about genetically modified female bodyguard Print Comic
As the description says, she's a body guard for her rich family that rules a large part of the world after an economic crisis. I think her name was Forever or something like that. In the setting, the world is ruled by a few families and they each have these special bodyguards (like forever). Also her family has control over advanced medical research which they use to make her and as their main bargaining chip.
resolved Graphic Novel about a spreading stain on a wall causing madness Print Comic
Flipped through a horror graphic novel somewhere during the 2000's, most likely black and white
Family finds a black stain on a wall in their home that can't be cleaned, removed or covered up.
Anger and madness start spreading amongst the family. May have caused the Murder-Suicide of a neighbour and his Mail-Order Bride
The stain starts growing with the bloodshed and I thinks leads to the protagonist burning down the house to destroy the stain

There was this comic book I once got my hands on briefly. It was an autobiography about a little girl living in one eastern block country. I think it was either Poland or Ukraine.
The front cover depicted the girl holding a plush toy while standing among soviet soldiers who were only shown from waist down - the upper halves of them were beyond the frame.
resolved Donald Duck stories Print Comic
I'm looking for two Donald duck stories. I want to say they are by Don Rosa or Carl Banks but I'm not sure.
In the first Donald is tasked by Scrooge to return a cursed amulets to let it's rightful owners (amazones I think). I remember the owners using a waterhose to keep anyone claiming to have the amulet of their property because anyone who does have the amulet wouldn't let that stop them.
In the other Scrooge misses hunting for treasures so Donald and the nephews hide one of his treasures, make a map which they hide in a condemned building and have Gyro erase their memories. At the end it turns they found the wrong treasure and the house with the map is torn down
resolved (SOLVED) Graphic novel about teenage girl w/ depression Print Comic
The front cover was all black and all it had was the title, the author's name, and a picture of the main character. She had brown hair, a green sweatshirt, and bags under her eyes.
She was in middle school (high school?) and all I remember was that she would enact self-harm by cutting scars into her arms.
The art was also very simplistic.
Edited by TropeFanaticFanresolved Horror Comic with Grotesque Girl (SOLVED) Print Comic
This one's actually kinda famous, but I can't really find it online since I don't know the magazine that ran the story:
A man's hunting in the woods when he sees another man with an axe, about to chop off the head of a young girl - she seems to be attractive, but there's a bag over her head. He kills the guy and saves her, takes the bag off to find out she's hideously disfigured.
Still, he takes her home and treats her well despite her appearance. At first, his family is supportive, but she starts acting agressive. One night, she forces herself on the guy. The family abandons him, saying he's obsessed with the monster. The grotesque girl ruins the man's life.
In the end, he takes her to the woods to chop her head, and ends up being killed by another hunter.
It's a black and white horror comic, probably from the seventies or early eighties. Around 16 pages.

I'm looking for the comic where Donald goes to the future and finds out that among other things his nephews are continuing his super hero work. Despite all three of them working together the beagle boys are still outmatching them, until Donald takes HD&L to the hideout of the burglars which he knew about because they also used it in the past/present
Edited by dutchguy1986resolved A supervillain comic Print Comic
It has a Villain Protagonist who is an Expy of Bruce Wayne becoming an Expy of The Joker. He has a blank, white featureless mask and one issue cover had him painting a Slasher Smile on it with blood. IIRC one issue also had him kill president Obama with a spear to the head.
I once had a Disney characters comic of 3 stories, the first ("Let's Get Kraken") and the 3rd featuring Donald Duck, and the 2nd featuring Mickey Mouse. It's the 2nd one
and the 3rd (striking cuz I found it from this site, mentions Gemstone publishing.)that I'm having trouble finding the titles of.EDIT: Okay, looks like all I needed to do was dig a bit deeper still. This site gives the exact book I had in its US publications list, and the 2nd story is called "Blot Clot".
