Author Bio

Lars Jakobsen began his art career in Denmark, designing patterns and graphics for the fashion industry. In 1990 he created a weekly comic strip that still runs over two decades later. Ganske Vist (or Coop Ville, as its known in English) is about day-to-day life in a chicken coop. Lars worked as an animator on two Ganske Vist cartoons. He has also made several documentaries about historic films and events. He has worked as a coordinator for the Consulate General of Denmark, where he helped introduce Danish artists to the American market. Mortensens Escapades was originally published in Denmark in 1993. Its high paced and punchy stories made it an instant success.
