Max and Mummmie comic

In 1997 I did one page of comic ervery week for the Veronica magazine. A tv-guide with a million readers. The main characters were two monsters. Max and Mummie. Text and idea Dick Briel. Click the title of this post for more info about him.


Mummie was uuuhm... a mummie. And Max was a fanatasy. Mummies fantasy in fact. In the end when Mummie went back to the piramides because he could't stand modern live Max just faded away. He could'nt live without his friend. Here they're still happy together. Did this picture as a gift to the publisher.



Some sketches from the beginning. They lived in an amusementpark with a horror/monster-theme. These ones where inspired by Tim Burtons Nightmare befor Christmas.



In the comic we sent them on trip around the globe. A new confrontation with the real world every week.



The cover of the album that came out on june 4 2000. My 39-th birthday. What a present.

And a sketch for a page where a cyclist took doping to keep up with the peleton. Just after that our friends crossed the streat. The cyclist ended up winning the race of course. But after that he was taken to a mental home. Was it the doping? Or was it the fact that he met Max and Mummie? Or was it both?
