It started several years ago, when I asked my friend and draughtsman Jan Kustfält if he would be interested to do the pencils on one of my scripts. I might've had this idea about a short story when I asked him or, I came up with the story afterwards, my memory isn't quite clear on that fact. Anyway, he said he was interested and shortly I wrote this script with him in mind as penciller!
I sent it to him and he said he was going to it! And now this autumn it's published! Feels great! It's been out for a couple of weeks, and I'm still very proud! The book was released during the Book fair here in Gothenburg earlier this autumn. I tried to get as many dedications as I could in my issue!
And now you ask how was it like to write something that you were not going to pencil yourself? It felt awesome! I think it has do with the fact that I wrote the story with that in mind, that I wasn't going to do the pencils on this one.
Plutonium is an anthology magazine (or book?) that is published yearly, edited by Per Myrhill. It contains loads of Swedish comics artists and international artists as well. If you are interested in whats happening in the Swedish comics scene I recommend you to check it out! But then off course I'm biased...!
Below you will see some photos of the book and the dedications that I got!
Take care
