Great news for all you comic-lovers out there, especially if you live in France! I’ll be visiting the biggest comic book festival of Europe this week, meeting with some french editors. And while I’m at it, I’ll be signing some Hara Kiwi books at the Flemish Literature Fund-booth (Place New York, Angouleme). Of course these books are Dutch, but still: how many times do you get the chance to meet Belgium’s sexiest male cartoonist in the flesh? For those not interested in my irresistable body I’ll be doing free commissions.
And your mother.
So if you run into to me at the festival: say hi! I’m easy to recognize: I’ll probably be the only Belgian artist that’s able to hold his liquor.
When: 27 to 30 January 2011.
Where: Angoulème, France (Le Nouveau Monde – Place New York, booth N6)
Why: because you want to.
More information: BD Angouleme
Woohoo, great news! I’ve been nominated for the Clickburg Webcomic Award 2010, also known as the Clickie.
It’s the most important webcomic award in Belgium and The Netherlands (especially since it’s the only webcomic award out here), so being nominated is quite an honour.
My daily editorial cartoon for www.nu.nl made their shortlist in the category ‘Cartoons’. Fingers crossed! Being my second nomination for this prize I certainly hope to wheel it in.
Just finished reading the interview I did for David Wasting Paper’s Cartoonist’s Survey-blog, an awesome blog about… well… cartoonists. If you ever wanted to know anything about any cartoonist you could possible imagine, that would be the website to go to. Really.
There’s no ninja-porn there, though. That’s one missed opportunity. Too bad.
Check out the site, and my interview.
I just saw the temporarily guestslist of the FACTS convention, and found out i’m in exceptionally good company this year. Guests so far: Dave ‘Watchmen’ Gibbons, Frank ‘Liberty Meadows’ Cho and Lectrr. Not bad!
Hope to see you there in October.
