Denis-Pierre Filippi

Denis-Pierre Filippi est né le 19 juillet 1972 à Bergerac. Il accroche à son palmarès scolaire un Bac scientifique, et une maîtrise de philosophie. Son penchant pour la BD est un héritage paternel qu’il a entretenu dès son plus jeune âge en fréquentant assidûment les pages de Spirou, en découvrant Ptiluc et plus tard Bilal et Loisel. Il voue aussi une affection toute particulière à Schuiten, Gimenes et Tolkien. Toutefois, les premières œuvres de ce jeune scénariste bordelais sont des contes pour enfants destinés aux écoles sous la forme de montage diapos. En fait, si Denis-Pierre Filippi est conteur, il est aussi raconteur et acteur puisqu’il n’hésite pas à «tester» ses écrits sur le jeune public : jouer son texte devant les enfants pour gu

Anja Hitz

Forfatter og oversætter Anja Hitz begyndte tidligt at sluge og blive slugt af bøger. Skriveriet voksede ud af de små historier, hun satte til sine egne tegninger. Sprog og fortælling holdt ved, tegneriet faldt fra. I dag skriver hun mest for børn og unge og nyder, når andre illustrerer hendes tekster, som kredser om det realistiske og nutidige.

Hitz er cand.mag. i filmvidenskab og dansk og var under sine studier bosat i New York i en længere periode. Selvom det lå i kortene, at hun efter endt akademisk uddannelse skulle have en karriere som formidler, kom første barn som inspirator til debutbogen "Min mor, mit muldyr" (2002). Det menneskelige sinds kringelkroge er en evig kilde til forundring og inspiration for forfatteren, og hun har efteru

Minna Sundberg

I'm a Finnish-Swedish lady, born in Sweden in 1990 and living in Finland during 1997-2013, and now I'm currently living in Sweden again for a little while. I got myself a bachelor's degree in graphic design from the university of industrial arts in Helsinki in 2013, and during my two final years of those studies I drew my first real webcomic, A Redtail's dream, a 556 page tale built around some concepts of Finnish mythology.

I also ran a crowdfunding campaign for a printed book version of A Redtail's Dream, and it went so well that I'll be able to work full time as a webcomic creator with the profits and only draw SSSS for a while.

Jan Thornhill

I was born in 1955 in Sudbury, but spent most of my childhood in southern Ontario where, encouraged by my artist mother and engineer/inventor father, I developed a life-long passion for both art and the natural world. I spent a lot of time exploring the fields, woods, ponds, and streams near where I lived, and was an avid collector of things I found. I brought home all kinds of treasures – skulls and fossils, bird feathers and empty nests, insects, snake skins, fallen leaves. Eventually I labeled everything and made a museum in the basement. I thought I’d get rich by charging a 5¢ entry fee…but my mum was the only one who paid!

After high school, I attended the Ontario College of Art where I had fun making experimental films and videos – no
