So it is done. I created the first script draft +10 years ago and been drawing this the past five years. Ending something like this is usually difficult and this case was no different. Anyway, glad it’s done and happy how it came out. It’s been truly a great ride – as Future does not stick to any style in visuals or narration I’ve been able to try out different things and learn on the way. Learnt a lot indeed. However, this was a massive project for me and at the moment my thoughts are ‘never again’. Let’s see if that actually happens.
The last 10th magazine of Future is here and sent to subscribers and retailers today. You can order this from me as well so message me if you need a copy. All the previous issues still available, whole 10-mag set for 60€ postpaid worldwide.

Future#7 is now available for orders. There are three issues to go after this and the series is complete. The storylines are getting bit twisted so stay tuned for surprises.
This costs 6€ shipped worldwide and you can as well subscribe to the whole 10-issue series (60€). Just mail me.
I’ll update later on the retailers who have this available – if you bought older issues in your local store you’ll most probably find this there bit later as well.

The printers just gave birth to these two:
CRACKING is a 132-page picture book collecting my drawings, sketchbooks, illustrations, paintings, pixels +++ from the past ten years. Big size full colour burst with ca. 200 images. Includes an article ‘Emptiness to emptiness’ that collects my thoughts on working on the borderlands of art. Thanks to everyone who’ve helped and worked with the book – there are numerous of you. I started to work on the book ca. 18 months ago so this has been a mid-length marathon. Happy to have this out.
FUTURE#7 is Future: rich getting poor, cities decayin into dust, earth rotating still, life ending mostly, diamonds melting, future hardons and all that. After this there are three issues to go which I’ll try to get all out during 2022.
Get these both (including shipping) for 30€ in Finland, 40€ in EU and 50€ in the rest of the world. Or if you want just Future that’s 6€ worldwide incl. shipping (subscription to all 10 issues 60€). Note that I’m selling the Finnish edition of Cracking meaning the article and liner notes are in Finnish. It’s 97% just images though.
With Cracking I encourage you strongly to support your local dealers. The book is or will be out soon in seven languages:
Portuguese: Chili Com Carne / Tinta nos Nervos
Danish: Cult Pump
English: Fantagraphics Books
Italian: Fortepressa / D’Editore
French: La 5e Couche
Swedish: Lystring
Finnish: Zum Teufel
Peace!

Back from holidays and Future#5 just got out the printers! Glad how it came out. Now the serie is halfway, five issues to go. This is my weapon against capitalism.
In this fifth issue of the serie the several storylines start to get twisted. What might be underneath the lost city of Centra? Who has built the series of world tormenting AI? What happens, when a normie spectator finds himself as a drugged star of The Reality Show? Find out…
Due Finnish Post I’ve been forced to raise the price for single issues to 6€ and the whole 10 issue subscription to 60€. If you’re interested in ordering, mail me. The prices include shipping worldwide. NOTE! Due I’m keeping the prices as low as possible I’m shipping it all as 2nd class (1st class would mean x2 prices). While the current Covid-19 crisis all the shipments have had enormous delays from one up to four (4!) months. So, dear customers, I’m asking for patience. Will update a list of retailers later. Stay tuned.
