HIPSTERS webcomic 006

Once again, the German version of this week's little hipster comic is up at the official HIPSTERS website.

HIPSTERS webcomic 005

This week, there are two new HIPSTERS comics. It's gonna be an exception for now, though.

As usual, there's a German version on the official Hipsters website.

HIPSTERS webcomic 004

This week's HIPSTERS webcomic is right on time again.

Check out the German version if you need it!

HIPSTERS webcomic 003

Monday is Hipsters day! Still on schedule, here comes the third Hipsters webcomic strip.

There is plenty of new stuff on the official Hipsters website, by the way, including a t-shirt shop and a FAQ section. So, check that out if you're interested.

And here's a link to the German version.

Erlangen report

Erlangen 2010 has been over for a couple of months now, but we've only now gotten around to upload the official report on the JAZAM! blog.

HIPSTERS webcomic 002

The second Hipsters webcomic arrives on schedule. The HIPSTERS website is almost finished, too, but I still need a little time to get a better hang of Comicpress.

The German version:

HIPSTERS webcomic 001

I'm starting a new webcomic. If I can keep it going for a while, I'll probably build an extra site for it, but for now, I'm gonna post them here on the blog. The strip features the "hipster" characters I've previously used in Hipsters vs. Monsters and Hipsters vs. Zombies. This is the first one:


There's a German version, too.

Would you be interested to read more of this on, say, a weekly basis?

Wiesn-G'schichtn

I've already shown the pencil and ink versions of this panel from a new comic of mine. Now here is the colored version:


It's from a four-page comic for the anthology Wiesn-G'schichtn, which just came out. It's a nice large-format hardcover album with short comics by 18 different Munich-based cartoonists that all revolve around the Oktoberfest and its 200th anniversary this year. My story is about the terrorist attack on the Oktoberfest in 1980 and is scripted by Oskar Rauch. The whole project was initiated by Comicaze and published by Volk Verlag. It's now available in stores and at Amazon.de for € 16,90. You can also order a signed copy from me directly via e-mail.


UPDATE: The first review just went online at Splashcomics.de and it's positively glowing!

Sonny

After finishing up all of my BA stuff, I finally found some time again to do another one of my movie character portraits. This one's Sonny Wortzik from Dog Day Afternoon.

superhero

A little commission I did for some friends of mine. It's one of their professors as a superhero.

bachelor thesis & exhibition

I'm all done with my bachelor thesis now. Two days ago I received several copies of this good-looking hardcover book:


It's the first part of a longer graphic novel I've been working on for about a year now with my co-author Roman Senkl. This first part is 23 pages long, but the whole graphic novel is probably going to be at least five times that.

The title is "Die Anstalt" ("The Asylum") and it's a faux-documentary mystery thriller set inside a strange insane asylum.

Some of the comic pages can be seen on the illustration website of my university: HORROR VACUI (just click on my name in the list)

If you happen to be in Munich, you can see the whole thing at our exhibition this weekend. Infos about that at our official website.

second-to-last sound

Since only one of my two submitted cartoons made it into the Vorletzte Geräusche book, I can now show the other one here:

I actually liked this one a little better. (The book as a whole is very funny though and well worth buying)

Erlangen 2010

Only two more days until this year's Comic-Salon Erlangen, Germany's biggest comics convention, begins. (It goes from june 3 till june 6.) As regular readers of this blog may have noticed, I'm publishing quite a few comics there. You can find my stuff (and, sometimes, me) at the following booths:

JAZAM! (#41): JAZAM! vols. 2-5, JAZAM!'s "Nightshift" comicjam, my Hipsters vs. Monsters minicomic
Ferne Welten (#87): Ferne Welten #1
Delfinium Prints (#66): 78 Tage auf der Straße des Hasses Sonderteil 1
Süßes und Saures (#39) / Mondfähre (#37): Vorletzte Geräusche

Find the booths on the MAP. Most of the time, I'll be at the JAZAM! booth.

Also, some of my artwork is part of the Comicaze exhibition at Café Moravia.

Hipsters vs. Def & Roy

If you thought I couldn't possibly publish any more comics at this year's Comic-Salon Erlangen, you'd be wrong. I drew another short comic for a special issue of David Füleki's extremely funny manga-influenced comic book "78 Tage auf der Straße des Hasses" (78 Days on the Road of Hatred). It's a crossover of my Hipster characters and the two protagonists of David's book. Here are the first few panels of it:


And the cover of the issue (despite the cover, it's not a porno):
