The spring issue of Zone 5300 (tagline: Comics, Culture and Curiosa) is out. Apart from the usual suspects (Mr. Mack, Maaike’s Diary, Troglodytes, Olga, Boerke, Cowboy John) there are:
– Carrièremoves (Career Moves) by Robert van Raffe, showing that the meta-comic isn’t dead, no matter how hard we club it over the head
![[panel from Armand and Ilva]](https://www.24oranges.nl/wp-content/uploads/2007/04/zone_5300-14_1-the_tjong_khing.png)
– An interview with Thé Tjong Khing (right), perhaps best known for his children’s books illustrations, but also for his recently republished Arman & Ilva sci-fi comic (written by Lo Hartog van Banda)
– An admission by Fool’s Gold editor Frits Jonker that he has taken part of his variety show to the Web in his new Showcase blog
– An interview with Utrecht-based collage artist Raymond Teitsma (left)
– And also comics by Wasco, Vladan Nikolic & Aleksandar Pavkovic, and Brooklyn-based Israeli artist Koren Shadmi. This month no Plageman (Beachman), I’m afraid. I should have nagged more.
[…] became famous in their right worked for Toonder Studios, such as Lo Hartog van Banda, Paul Biegel, Thé Tjong King, Piet Wijn, Dick Matena and Jan […]
Is T T Khing still with you?
How to tell him that ‘Where is the Cake’ is the most magical children’s book I have ever had the joy of sharing with small children! I’ve given it and its sequels in the series to numerous small people.
Please pass on my delight.
