Kevyt Metalli (Light Metal) 6


Kevyt Metalli (Light Metal) 6Black KnightFinnish languageUS comic size32ppfull colour€ 8.00Includes VAT. 10.00%
A speculative fiction comic book.

Comic book on speculative fiction. Authors: P. Blanco & K. Rosé, Ilpo Koskela, Vesa Vitikainen & Tomi Sunnarborg, Mikael Mäkinen, PA Manninen, Sippo Mentunen, Ninni 
Aalto. 

The Finnish version of Heavy Metal -titled here (amusingly) Light Metal.  This was sent to me by Pekka Manninen in Finland and it really is nice to see home home-grown creators at work here. Manninen has been highlighting Finnish creators in his own Sarjari for more than twenty years.

Incidentally, the last strip is by Manninen and coloured using mainly water colours (sorry about quality -no scanner and crap camera).

You should never let a fear of a foreign language stop you from getting a comic. The art does most of the work and you may discover some real treats. I liked the look of Kaukopartio and you can get the humour involved.

I have included a link to the store front in case anyone wants to buy a copy -at 8 Euros it isn't bad.
