Attention comic enthusiasts and Indo communities!!!
Indocomics are an overlooked phenomenon. Since the 1960s, Indo-European comic artists have been leaving their mark on international comic art. 'Indocomics' tells the extensive story of over thirty artists with an Indo, Moluccan, or Indonesian background, exploring their history, stylistic influences, and the diverse content of their comics. Connections are made to early Javanese and Balinese art, and the relationship between wayang (shadow puppetry), play, and the "clear line" style—famous through Tintin—is highlighted. The book devotes significant attention to pioneers like Epo Doeve and Thé Tjong-Khing as well as the new generation of illustrators and comic artists. Naturally, the book features many unique illustrations.
