A man whose bravery and fame is matched only by his commitment to truth, the great
Baron Münchhausen has permeated all artistic mediums of any worth: books (
on-
line and
off),
films (
old and
new), cartoons (
french,
english), an
animated short film, an
online graphic novel, even a
game of
role-playing -- if you are so despicable a person as to, for no other reason than the amusement of yourself and your fellows, slander the Baron's name with lies of your own invention. Though a similarly-named
syndrome would falsely imply otherwise, he is an entirely honest man who exaggerates as little as he boasts, and as to the latter I have assurances from no less a personage than the Baron himself that his humility is without equal in the 7 earth continents, and 2 out of 3 of the moon's.
