Forresten #27

A 2013 entry in Jippi Forlag's Norwegian anthology series, this twenty-seventh issue of Forresten features cover art by Tim Ng Tvedt and interior work entirely crafted by Anders Nilsen, whose story "Middag og en lur" ("Dinner and a Nap") promises the kind of understated, personal storytelling the series is known for. Unfortunately, no cover image is available to describe the visual, but Nilsen's solo turn — handling writing, art, inking, and lettering himself — suggests an intimate, carefully considered piece. At 120,00 NOK, it's a fine slice of Nordic alternative comics from 2013.
