COMICS SCENE: Netherlands Franco-Belgian comics are also very popular with our western neighbors, but due to the linguistic proximity to Flanders, they have a much longer tradition than here. A lively and creative comics scene with numerous talented artists has developed from this. We present some of them, such as Aimée de Jongh, Peter van Dongen or Hanco Kolk, whose funny series Gilles the Crook and his Spirou one-shot »Tulips from Istanbul« are now appearing here, and also take a look at the decades-old comic scene in the Netherlands that has more to offer than old cheese. PORTRAIT: Tony Sandoval It doesn't always have to be France, Belgium or the USA. Tony Sandoval comes from Mexico and his comics are of high quality. In Germany it was considered an insider tip for a long time. ALFONZ introduces the artist of comics like Doomboy and Wasserschlag in a detailed portrait. ANNIVERSARY: Strapazin The avant-garde comic magazine Strapazin, founded in 1984, has reason to celebrate. The Swiss quarterly magazine will reach number 150 in spring 2023. The next issue of ALFONZ will not only highlight the history and the somewhat different concept, but also take a look at the current situation of this traditional periodical. COMIC REPORT: The big year in review 2022 What were the most successful comics of the past year? How did the German comic publishers fare under the special challenges of the Ukraine war and the corona pandemic? Matthias Hofmann has once again compiled surprising results, the 2022 comic bestseller list, mood barometer and much more. Also, as always, other interesting articles, columns, time travel, obligatory fight scenes, reviews, reading tips and much more.
