“Paul Nova” published in Eisner

My comic “Paul Nova”, about an unknown singer-songwriter, has been published in the graphic novel magazine EISNER (named after Will Eisner). The magazine is for sale at all Dutch comicstores, bookstores and http://www.eisnerbeeldverhalen.nl

Here’s a page from the comic (click for better view)

Comic “De helaasheid der dingen”

For the book “Mooi is Dat”, mentioned earlier, I made a comic about “De Helaasheid der Dingen” (2006) by Belgian writer Dimitri Verhulst. This book is considered one of the best novels of centuries of Dutch literature. Because “Mooi is Dat” is in stores now, I can finally post the comic on my blog. The page is an interpretation as well as a rough summary of the book.

The book “Mooi is Dat”, featuring 57 comics by Dutch and Belgian artists, is for sale at all book stores and comic stores now! Also at:

Cartoons @Aimee in BOX!

NEW! From today on, my cartoons “@Aimee” will be published in the Belgian BOX magazine 3 times per year. The magazine is made by and made for students of the University in Ghent. You can read the magazine in Dutch here.

These are cartoons from the series @Aimee. Semi-autobiographic!

NRC Next article about “Mooi is dat”

The Dutch newspaper NRC Next published an article about the new book “Mooi is dat”, featuring 57 of the best Dutch books ever written (from the 11th to the 21st century), transformed into 1-page comics. My comic was even published in their example pages, along with artists like Floor de Goede, Joost Swarte and Gerrit de Jager. Here’s a photo of the page!

The book will be available from Saturday at the Kunststripbeurs in Utrecht. November 13th, the exposition with original sketches en prints of each artist will be opened  in the OBA (public library) in Amsterdam. Be there! Dutch writer Tommy Wieringa will be there too. It’s gonna be a beautiful hardcover book, published by De Vliegende Hollander.
