Oslo Comics Expo

Thursday, June 3rd, 2010

I made some Monomania-booklets for this year’s Oslo Comics Expo. I also did a new cover for Nano – part I, and printed 9 meter-long posters of Junction stories on thick matte paper. I still have a few left – send me a mail if you’re interested in buying any of these items.




Back from Fumetto

Thursday, June 3rd, 2010

I really enjoyed this years Fumetto-festival. Especially the great exhibitions. My favorites were Nicolas Mahler (AT), of course, with his new book “Engelmann”, the Jack Kirby exhibiton, Brecht Evens (BE) (look out for this guy in the future) and Souther Salazar (US). I met cartoonists from all over Europe and America, and visited Strapazin in Zürich. My comic “Junction stories” was exhibited in the “Kornschütte” in the centre of the old part of Luzern. I got to see a really cool “Totentanz” there as well, I think it was from the 17th century. Except for the Swiss beer, which to my surprise I don’t like very much, it was an enjoyable and inspiring weekend at the Fumetto festival.
