Let's start with weekly political cartoon.
Some of them published here didn't get printed due to some editorial decisions (they ware approved but there wasn't space on the page). That means the only way you can see them is on this page. Not that you are thrilled by that idea but anyway... Here is 13th episode.



Next stop, something you don't see here often - a drawing of Amnesia!

In the next issue of BD FUNziiin, a e-funzine published on the web portal of Radio Sarajevo (remember the one who sent me to London) there will be a short section of my comics with Amnesia. I was also asked to draw a front cover. I had an idea of an empty cover with AMnesia rushing in saying "Damn! I forgot I was posing on the cover today".

Here is the sketch of that idea:


For the final image I tried adding some more "scenes" as to make a small story...


... But It just isn't as effective as a single image.


Also, Milorad Vicanovic Maza asked me if I would make a poster image for 3rd Comic Festival in Laktasi. With Amnesia on it.

We started with an idea that Amnesia should be next to a famous landmark from the city of Laktasi. Maza choose a bath house and I sketched some ideas I had.



Among all of those small images, he liked the image of Amnesia in semi-turned pose in front of the bath house. So I drew it full scale and inked it.



Next stop? Add color to that drawing.
Maza suggested I do it like this (first image) but I thought that I should keep the clouds as the image (sky) looks empty without them.



But then Maza explained that he needs empty space (single colored background) so he can add text on the poster in those area. So I re-thought the idea of clouds and re-created the sky bit.



Last image was made last night and as I draw, er, paint, more you'll see it here.

Oh, I nearly forgot! How was it in London? AMAZING!

There will be more as soon as editors approve my texts.]]> 1266226993 Mon, 15 Feb 2010 10:43:13 +0100 http://www.superamnesia.com/blog.php?subaction=showfull&id=1263814549&archive=






If you are wondering what's the title - "Behani" means... Well, Bosnia and Herzegowina in short is BH, read (in Bosnian) Be-ha. If you push it you could say that people from Bosnia and Herzegowina are BeHa people. That would be Behani. But, word Bekan, and in plural, Bekani, means dumb ass (dumb asses). Bekan and Behan is very similar. Both as an word and as the type of character in the comic series. ]]> 1263814549 Mon, 18 Jan 2010 12:35:49 +0100 http://www.superamnesia.com/blog.php?subaction=showfull&id=1263198550&archive= I decided where I want to go with that award from Radio Sarajevo/EUphoria contest. They said I could visit any European capital and I choose London.

I believe London is just a great all-around city and would boost my creativity for sure. I plan on visiting Cartoon Museum, national Gallery and if possible even the office of 2000 AD. And off course Forbidden Planet and Waterstone's book store.

I'll be attending some of the plays at Mime Festival, then I'll try to seeMousetrap (they say that if you don't tip the taxi driver enough he tells you who the killer is - that's why I'll go there by foot!), and as a special treat the concert of very talented Imelda May (that's her in the photo).

There's still time to fit things in my schedule (as I'll be there from 22nd to 30th January) so feel free to suggest a meeting or whatever you know that is interesting in London.]]> 1263198550 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 09:29:10 +0100 http://www.superamnesia.com/blog.php?subaction=showfull&id=1263198330&archive= Traitan comic. The editor said I should make small adjustments and that is why this is going in"unauthorized" category.

I'm also posting the rest of comic in pen. Something I promised I'll do some time ago. But forgot. As usual.

The competition lasted for six months and I’ve submitted three comics (see them below) with one of them written by Emir Pasanovic.





And, surprisingly I won a monthly award.

But since then a lot of great work was submitted for a chance to win the final award: a trip to one of European capitals.

Yesterday, the winner was announced and - I won again!

I was so surprised and amazed and speechless and nervous that I couldn’t post the news yesterday. But today I can.

The jury decided that my comic capture symbolically the bitter/funny lethargic way of thinking among Bosnian citizens (regarding the Europhean Union) and disrespectful attitude towards the prosperity of Bosnian society.

And I thought my comics ware just, well, funny.

The city I’m going to will be agreed based on my wishes (I can go anywhere?! Wow!) and since Emir wrote the script for one episode he gets a picnic backpack which is, like, the best thing since the invention of sliced bread!]]> 1262247032 Thu, 31 Dec 2009 09:10:32 +0100 http://www.superamnesia.com/blog.php?subaction=showfull&id=1262071196&archive=
You ask why? You mean you don't know what's provocative about Vehabimon? Oh, lucky you!
