| Inspired by the work of Robert Crumb, the comical aspect of MAD and the storytelling of the director Ingmar Bergman, the Swedish magazine Galago began as a publication of political satire during the late 70s.
In the three decades since, it has grown to become the flagship of the Swedish alternative comics scene.
From The Shadow Of The Northern Lights, gathers 200 pages of some of the finest comic artists Galago and Sweden has to offer, including contributions from David Liljemark, Marcus Ivarsson, Mats Jonsson, Knut Larsson, Kolbeinn Karlsson, Liv Strömquist, and Loka Kanarp. The Swedish comics community has developed into one of the most important comics scenes in the EU, on par with the indy scenes in the U.S. and France. |
