A Troll Comic Book

















I did this comic several years ago. It was my first attempt at the troll story. It took a long time to sort out the best way to tell a story and I'm still not certain. Can anyone spot the comic book influences?

I don't know much about comic books, so I can't spot the influences. It does however make me want to start reading comics! Good job!

Ah! Lovely! Ok I'll try! Hmmm... Mike Mignola, Brian Froud and Dave McKean? And "Bone", maybe... isn't flat black good stuff! I think comic really suits the Troll.

Good calls Viviane! I'm suprised you got Dave McKean, that's a tricky one.

Thanks for visiting my territory, Eric. Your Art is really beautiful, too. Unfolding your posts, I spent some time looking at the magic atmosphere coming out from your wonderful painting "Rat Pirates"!

It's time to pay homage to your website, so I'm going there straight away!

See you around,
Maurizio Manzieri
