The Big Bad Bitterkomix Handbook

bitterkmix.jpg

Showcasing the brilliant and controversial existence of one of the world’s most famous political “comix” magazines, this anthology exhibits the wide range of published material including covers, postcards, posters, and drawings from the creators’ personal sketchbooks. The collection is a testament to the contentious history of Bitterkomix and its attacks on the Afrikaner culture and language, branching into its biting criticisms on South African society itself. Undeniably brilliant and often outrageous, the art content from Bitterkomix is interspersed with essays and articles by artists and poets, such as Antjie Krog and Ryk Hattingh. The resultant book is an essential chronicle, catalogue, and visual cornucopia of the work of the Bitterkomix artists and creators.
