The project
Irgendwo in Afrika is a comic that tells the story of a fictitious humanitarian campaign in a fictitious conflict of fictitious nations somewhere in Africa.

The topic has been on my mind for nearly 15 years. About ten years ago I started to make notes on the story, that is now the subject of my diploma exam.

The whole story will consist of five chapters, like the five acts of a classical drama. However only a part of the first act will be complete in time for the presentation. My style of drawing, research and the fact that I write the text myself, too, slow me down a bit. So I can’t tell yet, when the first comic book will hit the book store shelves. Besides, I need a publisher for that part.
