Article in the Dutch comicmagazine 'Strip Nieuws' about my work and the German comicscene.
25-29 january 2017 Visiting the famous Comicfestival of Angouleme for the first time. It was fantastic, the dimensions of this festival really blew me away. So great to see what the European comic community has to offer. And it is remarkable what can be achieved, when cultural and public acceptance is also supported by money from the state. One really feels himself wandering about a true comic paradise.
Here are some pictures I took, to give you an impression:
