Silly east european dystopia

Just finished this short comic for the Serbian Comics saloon.
It was kind of experimental for me and, of course, I couldn't keep it simple... again.

Fumetto-Luzern-die Schweiz

Freshly back from Fumetto . I'll just quickly underline what's been the most. Most nice was that on the first day we found out that not only my work has been selected for the exhibition
but also Rem's.

Most interesting exhibitions were those of Souther Salazar, Thomas Ott and Dani Affolter, Chihoi, Brecht Evans, and of course Jack Kirby. Most happy I am because I got to meet and talk to Dan Perjovschi, an artist -in the old sense of the word- who's works I admire for a long time. Most thankful I am to David Schielter , maker of Kus magazine and The Last Match, cause he introduced us to most of the people we met there. Most fond, I am of Juanita, romanian german gipsy vampire, born in Sighisoara (thats 52km from my hometown), living in Berlin and making beautiful comics. Most annoyed I was of the prices in Switzerland. Most impressed I was with the screening at the KTv night - all animated music videos, but twisted as they can be. Most sorry I am, we didn't have more time to spend with our hosts Gisela and Markus from Couchsurfing.
Most delightful bar decoration:
most white baloons
most touristic photo (you really couldn't resist the view)

24h Comics in Romania

So - it looks like it's gonna happen. Thanks to the Jumatatea Plina bookshop and Lente Cafe which is going to host it in Bucharest. But the one that really made ends meet is sweet Suzi who wanted this very badly for her event - White Night of the Galleries - big artsy places crawl .
I just hope I won't jinks it ...

24h-comics

We're just back from Leipzig where we've been into a 24hComics "competition"- I don't think it will be considered a competition since we were only 5 people in the event. But we were in for the fun. Most awesome is that we both (me and Rem) finished the 24 pages required. I never thought we'd do it after reading about the event on the net. The 24h Comics was started by Scott McCloud famous comics theorist in 1990 and since then it has spread world wide. But here's the data in wiki
The organizer and MC of the event was Jan Hartmann - a crazy guy from Frankfurt who just got the idea to do this aside the Leipziger Buch Messe, and, not knowing anybody in Leipzig, just gave a shout on Couchsurfing and the locals managed to find a place, a DJ, a vocal singer, catering and make this possible. And have a party at the same time. The people from the Essential Existence Gallery were also great - they took care of us , and fed us and stayed up the whole time with us .
We also tried for the first time the Mitfahr thing (very organized riding-together system they have in Germany) and Couchsurfing and we were lucky to find some very nice people. Especially Anja, our most patient host.
Thanks everybody.
No pictures , though... cause silly us, we went there with the camera's battery empty and no charger. But there are pictures and there will be a film also, I guess, on the event's blog
...
we got also some time to visit Leipzig - beautiful city center and nice parks with squirrels :)

So here's my chef d'oeuvre :P
