FAFNER

A European graphic artist — Max von Fafner

UPDATE / September 2022

Max von Fafner has been making new posts on his Facebook page this year — after being “gone” for over two years,  he updated his Facebook pic and he has published a series of 3 new CAESAR books!!

((( The problem is that they are published in Europe and it’s not easy to get copies...)))

Fafner’s art continues to be quite spectacular, to say the least!

Fafner’s BIO information

Fafner was born on September 12, 1972 in France and has been drawing comics since elementary school. In 1991, he graduated from an art high school to pursue higher education, still in the field of the Arts. In all, Fafner trained for eight years of classical art. From 1999 to 2000 he served in the Military Air Force in the Reconnaissance and Surveillance Squadron. From 2000 to 2004, he gave readings on Art at the University and, until 2012, he worked on both illustration, 3D animation, video game development and graphic design. He entered the world of comics in 2012, teaming up with the talented screenwriter Valérie Mangin for IMPERATOR, an epic sci-fi fresco.

Most of Fafner’s work is published only in French, but the above book was translated into English in the collection of CARTHAGO ADVENTURES (with a non-Fafner cover)…. it’s a story of the Carthago organization hunting dinosaurs and giant crocs…
