The Hamburg Comic Festival is one of my highlights every year.
For almost a week, several dozen events: readings, signings, exhibitions, sales rooms with many publishers , etc.
Among other things, the start of a new horror graphic novel series - DIE UNHEIMLICHEN
was very interesting for me that year.
German comic artists reinterpret classic and modern horror stories from ...
John Kendrick Bangs, Theodor Fontane, A.E.Poe, Literatur Nobel Prize winner Elfriede Jelinek and others...

Den Nachfolgern im Nachtleben - Sarah Khan + Isabel Kreitz

I've heard of hamburger and Poe, of course!
More cool stuff!
Then I'll show Poe next. The great thing about the
DIE UNHEIMLICHEN series are the completely different drawing styles of the artists. Lukas Jüliger puts Poes classic horror story in an incredible, mostly green otaku / anime world.

Interesting. I wonder what Poe would have thought of anime.

The DIE UNHEIMLICHEN series continues with a story by Literature Nobel prize winner Elfriede Jelinek.

I think I made out the words 'the', 'a', 'and' and 'two', I think
Why do you guys have so many ways of saying 'the'???
Seriously, nice book, and I must start to keep up with all those Nobel Prize winners.
Nice, Frank!
Great addition frank!

Really cool, Germany seems so book friendly with all the events you go to.
Very nice. Did you buy any red lights?
Tks guys, it was a fun event.
No red lights bought, nothing bad done....:onfire:
But I remember when I left the event a large group of drunk UK football fans stood in front of the fruit shop, along with some hookers.
(Football fans from the UK often come to Hamburg to see FC St. Pauli)

Seems like a great time, Frank! But you don't have to turn on the red light :)
