STILL LIFE II
after having been working on and off for the past 3 years on this, i’ve managed to finish the second series of 52 episodes. the drawing and colouring bit was quite a lot of work (graphic novel, grrr) – but in the end, a seriously beautiful book came into being —> STILL LIFE <— containing both the first and the second series (making it therefore quite a ‘large’ compendium, arching over 10 of my years in total) …
—> from ocober 2010 also running at ELECTROCOMICS
here are a few sample strips of the new series:
STILL LIFE
***UPDATE spring 2024:
these are the original pieces of work i did when starting off to write and draw again. it is a strip series featuring surreal, psychologically ‘rich’ dialogues in front of an alienating urban backdrop.
MY BIGGEST MISTAKE
this is my first published multiple page comic entitled MY BIGGEST MISTAKE. it has appeared in PANIK ELEKTRO NO 4, an independent german comic anthology.

THE SANDBOX
EDIT *** had sent this out to all media entities in austria – television, magazines, newspaper. apart from them ‘disappearing’ or being stolen, not a single person or entity got back to me. tv station ‘atv’ soon after launched a corny and weak concept where the usual footage from parliament was voiced over ‘satirically’ by children’s voices. how pathetic is the media scene in this mickey mouse country lol.
this one is a political strip series i develped during a year i stayed back in vienna (about 2004). it’s kind of a mixture between BERTHOLD BRECHT and SPITTING IMAGE, very dark but also quite funny. all austrian politicians are reduced to small children playing in a theatrical sandbox setup. the citizens are shown as toddlers in nappies. the european politicians are adults the kids want to impress.

THE AGENCY
this is a one page comic concept, set in an advertising agency. the lead character called HARRY thinks he’s a genius and so does his boss but everyone else hates him. in each episode he’d wear a different outfit and show a different aspect of his personality. the everyday ‘adventures’ in the agency are always surreal and hysterical, a tongue-in-cheek pisstake on all the creative egos out there.
this project is looking for people to take it on board of their publications.
