After reading Jens Lapidus’s Stockholm Noir Trilogy, I came across his spin off, the graphic novel Gängkrig 145 (Gang War 145), which is illustrated by Peter Bergting.

By Gerry Mak in New Illustration on Thursday 11 March 2010

Sam Wolfe Connelly has a great illustrative style that has some graphic novel influences, but doesn’t seem overly rooted in any particular genre. He also manages to breath new life into cliched imagery when he hasn’t avoided cliches altogether.
