Die Form der Schönheit

Author Frank Berzbach wrote about my book "Fahrradmod" in his great and also beautiful book "Die Form der Schönheit". I fell very flattered. Thanks, Frank.

All new website.

Did you notice? I have a new website. And you're already on it. You'll find loads of illustrations, full comics, some info about myself plus a detailed archive about all the madness that has happened in the last few years. 

But I also installed a section with all my scene-related artwork, artwork that I did for flyers, posters or just for the fun of it. Be very welcome and let me know what you think. And if you like what you see, feel free to share it with your mates.

Polle

Good news for those of you who have kids who love comics. There will be an all new comic mag with comics for kids from great german artists. It‘s called POLLE, and will debut on the comic salon in Erlangen. To help them I did this illustration for their promotional activities, the original was available as a reward for their crowdfunding. Sorry, it's gone already. But you can still back them via startnext.com/polle, make sure you get yourself a copy of this gem of a mag.

 

Abenteuer 1 x 1

Did another game design for Haba. This was great fun to do and I like the outcome a lot. You can get in toyshops or order your copy here.

Comic Talk

I was invited to Hella van Sinnen's Comic Talk at the Bürgerhaus Stollwerck in Cologne, along with Eko Fresh and comic expert Volker Robrahn. Talking about comics is something I really like to do, so this was a pleasure.

THIS IS SKA 2018

Proud to announce that I did the design and illustrations for this year’s This Is Ska-Festivals posters and tshirts. It’s one of the best and biggest German ska-festivals so this was an honour to do. I hope you like it as much as I do.

Lemgo

Last wednesday I was live-reading my graphic-novel Fahrradmod in Lemgo. The place was packed, many people andeven some well-known faces from the scene came from far, so I want to thank you all. Big up to Sebastian for the organization, the excellent accommodation and the delicious pizza, as well as for the photos. And even all the books have been sold. I even signed the last ones when nobody was there anymore. Thanks a lot everyone.

Edit: There were also two articles about my reading in the local press. Now included in the photo series.

Monoklub

The nice guys of the powerpop band Monoklub from Hamburg asked me for an illustration for their latest 7inch record. It was a pleasure to do. Get your copy here.

Fettes Brot
