The news hit the comic community hard this week, the International Comic Salon in Erlangen is cancelled for this year, making it an exhausting four years in total to wait for the next edition. We are all devastated, but of course we’ve all seen it coming, the Corona virus and the restrictions will stay with us for a while.
But there’s also good news. It says a lot about the staff of the festival that in these times they asked German comic artists to describe their daily life, their situation during the lockdown, at home, Drawing at the Home Office. 20 artists have participated so far, and I feel flattered to be one of them.
You can take a look at the results on the official page of the Comic Salon. Please go there, share and support them with this. And I hope we will see each other in two years at the least, healthy and happy. Stay safe.
There is also a first article about the series.
Here is my comic.
