Dödskallar, Totempålar och Svampar

Det var ett tag sedan som SPX gick av stapeln, men de som såg mig där kunde väl inte missa att mitt nya fansin "Här var Vilda Västern" är fix och färdigt. Fansinet innehåller två serier, "Dual Papa" som har gått i Babian.se tidigare, och "Här var Vilda Västern" som finns i engelsk version i Galagos internationella antologi "From the Shadow of the Northern Lights". Här är alltså första gången som berättelserna sammanfogas till en fantastisk helhet. Du kan beställa den om du skriver ett snällt mail till adressen som står överst på sidan, eller så köper du den på min favoritbokaffär Hallongrottans näthandel.

Bergman Snake Party!

Pretty much about now, should the Swedish exhibition "Through a Panel Darkly" open up. Thanks to Galago and the Swedish embassy in tokyo, i am participating in an exhibition about Swedish doom and gloom in the comics world. To quote the text on the Swedish embassys website: "This exhibition shows a unique part of Swedish comic strip art that, in word and image, carries on the heritage of August Strindberg and Ingmar Bergman. Black and white, full of darkness and anguish, they are, at the same time, as funny as only a comic can be..." Considering the fact that my comics are about neither doom nor gloom, i would guess i am in the show as some kind of jolly exception. Anyway, the exhibition, and the trip seems like a lot of fun, and i wish my glorious publishers all my best. You can follow their adventures here.

Oh i almost forgot: My reason for writing in english here is so that maybe someone in tokyo is reading this entry right now! In that case, just follow the flashy snake posters until you hear the party in the distance! Yay!
