Jul 1, 2009 Gängkrig best selling book in Sweden 
1. (NY) Gängkrig 145 - Jens Lapidus & Peter Bergting, W&W (-) Alvin Eldpojken goes theater
Me and Stina Engelbrecht's book Alvin Eldpojken has become a theater play at Övik. Check it out! I hope I can find the time to make the trip since I would love to see it myself. Jun 20, 2009Visit the new site for De dödas rike
De dödas rike just reopened with cleaned up html and lots of new stuff. Check it out! And buy a book while you're there. We sure do appreciate it. Jun 16, 2009Discover Stockholm with Gängkrig 145
Here’s a brief guide to some of the Stockholm locations that are featured in Gängkrig 145.
I bet you need a whole bunch of plugins to view the pages since it's in 3D but hey - it's worth
it! In order of appearance:
Sweden's most blogged about book
This was funny, and a bit awe inspiring. Our graphic novel is currently the most talked about book in Sweden, or rather I should say, most blogged about. The list is collected by blog portal "knuff.se". Jun 10, 2009Still #1 at Åhléns
Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe that this is the third week in a row that we're #1 at Åhléns. I took a picture that you can view here. Jun 10, 2009How to Draw Mahmoud from Gängkrig
Just posted a small "How To" on YouTube. If you have artistic ambitions you might get a kick out of it. Music by Jens and Stina Engelbrecht. Jun 9, 2009Havsdemonerna
The first batch was recalled after the printers totally messed up the book. We're all about quality and the book wasn't good enough to ship. So back it went and hopefully the new batch is out tomorrow. If it isn't you can still preorder it at either AdLibris or your local bookstore. Jun 8, 2009Book Signing Update
Apparently the book signing is also a meet and greet where you get to ask questions and hear us talk. Jens and I have prepared a small song and dance routine as well. Jun 6, 2009Book Signing
Jens and I will be signing Gängkrig at Akademibokhandeln, Skatteskrapan on Tuesday June 9 at 18:00. Jun 5, 2009Reviews For Gangwar 145
I'm moving the reviews to a separate document that can be found at the link below: Jun 1, 2009Radio
Will be on radio later today. Hit the link below for more info. May 31, 2009The Portent Strikes Back
With Gangwar 145 making the news all around, The Portent is actually back on the shelves, and Bokus has it featured as a "news" item in the online store. Hit the link below for a really good price (they also have the English version). May 30, 2009Best Seller at Bokus
Yikes! We just hit the #1 spot at Bokus as well. Granted this was just for yesterday's sales, but it'll be interesting to see the weekly chart next week. May 30, 2009Best Seller at AdLibris
Just got back from the publicity junkets on the West coast, had the release party and today found out that Gängkrig made it straight to #1 at AdLibris (the largest online store in Sweden). Could I be happier? No, not really. Time to bring out the Champagne! May 29, 2009On Radio Next Week
Next week finally sees things calm down a bit. I'm doing a radio interview on Monday but so far that's it. Good, since I have a ton of stuff to catch up with. May 21, 2009Gangwar 145 Roundup
Next week sees the last leg of the Gangwar 145 publicity junkets. It will take me to the Gothenburg archipelago for four days of sales talk and then back again to Stockholm for the release party. Jens and I have done more interviews than I can count, heck, I can't even name all the magazines we've appeared in. Best part was probably when I got to do the cover for Metro's Weekend Special. We've appeared on national TV twice to talk about comic books which was awesome and hopefully more people will check out graphic novels now, and not just ours after this. It's been a lot of work, and if I never do another interview again, it'll probably be too soon. My wife agrees since she's had to flee the house more than a couple of times to make room for TV crews and reporters. I pondered keeping the Gängkrig Blog around for a while but decided against it. The book is done and I really can't think of anything more to say abut it. One less distraction I guess. A few people have asked me about the Gothenburg Book Fair in September. Unfortunately neither me nor Jens is able to make it there. To sum it up: It's been a lot of fun. I'm really proud of what we've achieved and I hope the book finds its audience. |
