Erlangen 2010

Two days ago, I returned from the 14. International Comic-Salon in Erlangen, Germany. As usual, it was a blast - my friends and me had so much fun. And of course, we completed our collections, discovered new comics, and met artists. I managed to find some real nice 70s Marvel Magazines and cheap trades, and an almost complete run of Dr. Strange.

2001 revisited

Still one of the best Sci-Fi-Movies ever!

This is my favourite Sci-Fi-Series - I read it since 1979. This issue, however, is from 1966, a first edition. Perry Rhodan and his terrans are stranded in the past, more than 50'000 years from now. The Masters of the Island are responsible for this, an ancient race of immortals.

Happy Birthday, H.R. Giger!

One of the greatest artist in history celebrates his 70th birthday on february 5th, 2010 - his work ist awesome, disturbing, beautiful, incredible and terrifying. No one can show nightmares like him, and pictures worlds like from another dimension or reality. Without him, science-fiction and horrormovies would be different today. Congratulations!
