Telle est une Estelle

telle_est_une_estelle
What happens when young comics artists get a few years on them? Kids comics seem back on the agenda, from James Kochalka to Art Spiegelman.

The indefatigable Sylvain-Moizie of Institut Pacome and Atelier BD is ‘the most happy guy of France’, doting on his 15 month old daughter and doing some comics about family.

Telle est une Estelle is now available from Editions Delcourt. (And there is more on the way…)

The Great Australian Graphic Novel

[from Bernard Caleo] Hey there,

come along to North Bazaar, 222 High Street Northcote, at 8pm this on 
Friday night the 12th of October, for the final in a series of three 
great Fridays celebrating the work of local comic book makers and 
animators.  All have been part of the Melbourne Fringe Festival 
exhibition, ‘Aggressively Strange Fables: Melbourne Underground Comics 
and Animation Art Exhibition’ (
www.strangefables.com), and this 
Friday’s event is:

‘The Great Australian Graphic Novel’

Nicki Greenberg’s graphic adaptation of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s classic 
‘The Great Gatsby’ was launched last month.  Bruce Mutard’s tale of a 
conscientious objector living in Melbourne during the Second World War 
will be published in April 2008.  Both these books are being published 
by Allen & Unwin, and we are thrilled to present Nicki and Bruce in 
conversation with their publisher, Erica Wagner.

Nicki and Bruce will be showing images from their work on the large 
screen at North Bazaar.

The discussion will centre around how the publication of these books 
has come about, and cast forward as to the future of the ‘big serious 
comic book’ in Australia.

Time: 8 – 9pm

Place: North Bazaar, 222 High Street Northcote

Cost: Free, and it’s a good chance to check out the exhibition as 
well, which officially finishes on Sunday 14 October.

Hope to see you there!
