New Comic Project!

I didn´t post anything for a long time,
but that doesn´t mean I wasn´t busy.

I did put on my writer's hat again and wrote a story called
GUNG HO.

It is gonna be a 400 page comic book,
first published in 5 volumes by Édition Paquet, France.
The first volume "Black Sheep" will be published around autumn 2013.
In January 2013 there will be a oversize Deluxe Preview
of the first 40 pages and with 20 pages bonus material.

Artist is my friend and favourite artist Thomas von Kummant.

We did the adaption of Wolfgang Hohlbeins
"The chronicals of the immortals"
together and felt it is time for a story of our own.

Thomy started a blog for the project, which you can see here:

This is the Cover for the second novel about the Nibelungs by Wolfgang Hohlbein and Torsten Dewi.

Wulfgar, the selfdeclared king of Xanten and his army are invading Iceland.

He is looking for Sigurd, son of Siegfried the dragonslayer and therefor the rightful king og Xanten.

Another Cover for the Wolfgang Hohlbein - Books.

This is a retelling of the famous german myth

"The ring of the Nibelungs" by Hohlbein and Torsten Dewi.

Siegfried the dragonslayer bathes in Fafnirs blood.

The leave on his shoulder hints at his own death...

I had this image in mind for ten years, but never got to paint it.

So I was glad for the opportunity and jumped right at it.

Chronik der Unsterblichen Teil 2

2010-03-05T12:43:00.001+01:00

My man Thomy (http://vonkummant.blogspot.com)

is working full time now on the second part

of the Graphic Novel-Adaption of Wolfgang Hohlbeins

"The Chronicles of the Immortals" and does a marvelous job.

As his studio mate and scenarist of the adaption I have

the privilegto watch it grow every day.

Thomy asked some artists he respects to contribute their

interpretation of a scene and/or a character of the story

for a Gallery Part at the end of the book.

Of course he wasn´t able to get around me!

So here´s my take on Kerber, one of the three Golden Knights,

immortal warriors killing their way through Eastern Europe

in the name of the roman Inquisition.
