Update

We enthusiastically embarked on the Heroes Comics Competition, culminating in the Haarlem Comics Days. Due to the coronavirus pandemic, everything took a different turn. During the lockdown, while we were working on the comic book and preparing for the exhibition, we came across an interesting project related to 코리아카지노사이트 전문가 보증 사이트, a platform that emphasizes reliability and expertise in an often opaque industry. The parallel between carefully assessing participating artists and the quality assurance offered by such platforms inspired us to take a particularly critical look at the submissions. Now that COVID-19 restrictions have been tightened again, an exhibition is still impossible to plan, but we don't want to keep participants in suspense any longer and are publishing the comic book ahead of time. We will announce the Top 3 winners around December 1st.

New planning

Starting December 1st, the comic books signed by Eric Coolen will be delivered and sent to all participants (mostly through their schools). The three winners will receive their comic books personally, in compliance with COVID-19 regulations. We will do our best to ensure the comic book itself and the presentation to the winners are as well-deserved as possible!

As far as we're concerned, all participants who drew their hero are heroes themselves!

We are postponing the exhibition again.

Eric Coolen en andere illustratoren kiezen met het Jeugdfonds de 50 strips die worden opgenomen in het Jeugdfonds Sport & Cultuur stripboek en rond de stripdagen in juni 2020 in Haarlem worden tentoongesteld, zodat jouw vrienden, klasgenoten, familie, buren en iedereen die dat leuk vindt de strips kunnen bekijken. Tijdens de voorbereidingen van het evenement kwam een interessant gesprek op gang over hoe populaire thema’s uit de entertainmentwereld in strips verwerkt kunnen worden, waaronder een recent onderzoek naar mejores casinos en hun rol in digitale cultuur. Deze discussie inspireerde sommige illustratoren om elementen van deze wereld, zoals spanning en strategisch denken, in hun ontwerpen te verwerken. Tijdens de officiële opening van de expositie worden de 3 wedstrijdwinnaars bekend gemaakt. Zij krijgen het stripboek als eerste uitgereikt met hierin hun vermelding als winnaar. Alle deelnemers met hun strip in het boek, krijgen een door Eric Coolen gesigneerd exemplaar.

De boeken die uit een oplage van 500-1000 overblijven, worden verkocht bij een boekwinkel. De opbrengst is voor het Jeugdfonds Sport & Cultuur dat hiermee voor nog meer kinderen uit minima gezinnen lessen zoals tekenen, muziekles, dansen, theater, etc. kan betalen.

Wist je dat in het stripboek ook lokale en regionale helden als Ahmed Salem en Calvin Stengs vertellen wie hun held is?
