Seems the Bayeux Tapestry is going to be on display in England for the first time in a very long time. Possibly ever, depending on which historians you listen to.

What William I ? Oh, you mean Guillaume le Conquérant...

Sorry, I'm Norman myself. More seriously, to my brit friends, I strongly encourage you to go see it. It reads like a comic and is definetly worth the sight.

Eh, to be honest I expected you to delete it entirely for spreading Norman propaganda. Rumors of William's victory are just too politically hot to deal with here where we make tiny legionaries out of plumbum.

The medieval equivalent of getting your butt kicked and having someone record it and put on to Youtube, and then have it go viral.

It's the first time it's left France for over 950 years.

It would be interesting to go see it. Amazed that it's lasted this long.

But it is basically a 250ft long comic book.

Historic Tale Construction Kit - BAYEUX
Two German students originally wrote the Historic Tale Construction Kit, with Flash. Sadly, their work isn't available anymore, only remembered. This new application is a tribute, but also an attempt to revive the old medieval meme, with code and availability that won't get lost.

This project is available for you to use and we hope you will enjoy playing with it as much as we enjoyed building it. We put the open source code on GitHub , so you can grab it, tinker with it or even help us by contributing.

We love our superheroes because they refuse to give up on us. We can analyze them out of existence, kill them, ban them, mock them, and still they return, patiently reminding us of who we are and what we wish we could be.

For once I can say that it was not me. Since I know about half of you immediately wondered.
