JUSTUS-JONAS-EINE INTERPRETATION. Multimediale Graphic-Novel-Lesung mit Christopher Tauber

In the organizer's words:

What happened to Justus Jonas, the first detective of the Three? In his graphic novel, Christopher Tauber tells the story of Justus' life after the legendary cases. In 1970s Los Angeles, 19-year-old Justus seeks new paths as an actor, investigator and human being. But Hollywood offers few opportunities for former child stars. As he comes to terms with his past, he stumbles upon a case that leads him deep into the dark side of the city. Who is behind the machinations that threaten him? What role do his old friends play? And how far will Justus go to uncover the truth? Justus Jonas is "dark and brilliantly told" - a gripping homage to the cult figure(Comic Review).

Christopher Tauber (*1979 in Frankfurt am Main) works as an illustrator, author, editor and publisher for comics. He is co-publishing director of the oldest German independent comic publisher Zwerchfell. He has been writing and illustrating for the cult series Die drei ??? since 2013 - a particular irony, as he was terrified of the radio play cassettes as a child. In his spare time, Tauber is an enthusiastic amateur film author. His horror short film Die schönste Bahnstrecke Hessens recently found a small, international niche audience.
