In their hubris an incompetence, the hunting party shot their tracker dog instead of their main prize, the lone and endangered wolf. I think this was kind of Mämmilä's point of view, traditionalism versus modern influence and the change of times in general. I loved Mämmilä as a kid; the real town Mämmilä is based on (Orivesi) of this is not far from where I live. I connected with the kids in the comics when I originally read them, but now when I am older, I understand the viewpoints from the adults in this much more, and the small town politics are all too real even today. Mämmilä was a great series of comics, there is much more in store, keep following certain characters that have been already established here.

Johnny Walker posted:What is she wearing? She delivers the town mail with a moped and the thing she is wearing is 1970's era protective motorcycle gear. She is very rarely seen without it. The gear will evolve over the years to come. I can't seem to find a picture of a real life example of the original suit.

Sweaty IT Nerd posted:I really like mämmilä It is great, sorry for hyping it, but as a reader of Mämmilä in my youth, there is so much more coming. We are just still in the 70's of the strip. I really was worried about the forums that you might end up missing the best parts of it.

 This is one of my favourite panels of Mämmilä. Tiernapojat is quite a dusty and outdated tradition in Finland, I really like how the teens turned it into a cold war analogue. Also, 80’s teens tended to look older than their age, I know, I was one.

LazyQ posted:Mämmilä Wow, good job translating all of this. Back in the day, I was impressed by the portraits of the ”real” characters of the comic. I remember Apina Kapina being a good strip, altough a bit pretentious.
