The Helsinki Comic Festival 2














Got the first price (5000 euros) from the competition. The jury`s argument for my work was as follows: "Rohkea aihevalinta, viittaa suomalaiseen taiteeseen ja historiaan. Haasteelliset limitetyt aikatasot. Vahva aloitusrepliikki, komea toteutus. Tarttuu voimakkaasti aiheeseen, ja näyttävä kuvallinen esitys." For those abroad I`m saying that these were pretty encouraging words. Now you can at least think: "what the fuck is this language they are mumbling at the country where the icebears walk the streets". They don`t.
