Henrik Lange wrote "80 romaner för dig som har bråttom" where he would sum up a classic novel on only one page. Really funny reading.

Book fair 2008: 26 mermaids

134. Thomas Olsson

Thomas Olsson drew his character Rogert as a merman!

A sweating merman with a tie and shirt.

133. Martin Kellerman

Martin Kellerman, the cartoonist of "Rocky" drew his maincharacter as a mer-dog! In peace & quiet combing the hair that isn't there. Adorable.

131. Ola Skogäng

Ola Skogäng writes about a bear, Theo, that solves occult mysteries, and I found his comic in Nemi, and later I found him in the bok fair! He drew a cool skeleton mermaid, a bit occult like his comics.              

Clips: (both Jimmy and Ola has drawn a mermaid!)

129. Lasse Åberg

Lasse Åberg, famous for his role in the movie "Sällskapsresan" and his collection of glasses, cups, paintings etc with the theme of Mickey Mouse! There's even a museum.

   He drew this.. ship, named "sea maid" so he sort of cheated, didn't he? But in a letter I recieved from him later, he drew a Mickey Mouse mermaid.

128. Carina Kågström

Carina Kågström, illustrator and artist that likes to exaggerate and distort, mix serious things with humour, and she mostly draws humans and the ordinary things in life. I love the curly hair of the mermaid, and how the picture almost tricks the eye, with a third arm?

127. Mikael Sol (& Kim W Andersson)

Mikael Sol the author of "Till alla jag legat med" and the maincharacter, based on himself, he here drew as a merman. With the gesture and the innocent face expression of "What? Me?"

While drawing Kim W showed up beside him, and saw my name in the book, and asked if I'm Linda Ågren with the books of mermaids. Cool coincidence! I never met him live before, but he drew me this cool mermaid, remember? Now I got to meet him for real, and he just had to draw me a live mermaid for me. He also drew small mermaids in letters he sent me and my sister.



Nr. 62 Kim W Andersson

I found Kim W in Nemi with his comic "Love hurts" and I HAD to e-mail him; not only did he draw a bloody comic strip about mermaids, but he also involved The Master & Margarita (Michail Bulgakov) in his next one. So I had to e-mail him and discuss this awesomeness, because we were reading it in school (thanks Eskil). That's how it started, and he made me this beauutiful mermaid! He got screen prints from me in return :)

Here is the sketch:
