You will have noticed by now that we at The Maier-Files regularly pay attention to so called “conspiracy theories”. And if you have read the prequel to our series, you will have seen that a conspiracy theory (one ?) plays a major role there (by the way: that’s even more so starting from Book 1, which by now is finished,...
Last week we accidentally stumbled upon – that’s how it works at StumbleUpon, isn’t it ? – a picture of the so called Hessdalen lights. An interesting phenomenon in the UFO category (it are, until now, non identified flying objects), be it by the sole fact that “real” scientists don’t just dismiss it as imaginary. The phenomenon is basically all about...
There’s no accounting for tastes, some say. We absolutely agree on that and so don’t expect everybody will think of The Maier-Files as beautiful or interesting just because we do think it is, but nevertheless we’re always happy when readers let us know that we’re doing well. In that respect the publication of the prequel on the Stripster website has been...
Strange how little things can remind us of things that happened a very long time ago. For example the two sentences Dorn read this morning in the book “Dark Star” by Henry Stevens (very interesting, by the way, though a little too technical): “If this were the technology the Reagan Administration had received, it would account, temporally, for the appearance of...
Whoever knows anything about the Rockefeller family history will without any doubt, and without having to think about it, answer the question above with a “no”. There namely is a difference between naïve and crazy: the Rockefellers are neither, and we surely ain’t crazy. But let us explain what we’re talking about. The Rockefeller family, more specifically the Rockefeller Brothers Fund,...
This weekend an interview - our first ! - with the authors of The Maier-Files was published on the website of Stripelmagazine. Since the interview is published in Dutch we translated it into English for our readers. Here it is: Striking new initiative: The Maier-Files, first comic book of the debuting duo Pat & Dorn. They have a go at it...
We probably don’t have to introduce Syria anymore. Since the start of the “civil war” over there almost everybody in the world knows the country at least by hearsay. But we do want to return for a second to the start of that “civil war”, somewhere in March 2011. At that time political islamists, Salafists and other radical Sunnis joined...
Yesterday we told you that we’re not “believers” concerning “chemtrails”. Well, we’re not believers concerning flying saucers either. Especially when the personnel of these saucers exists of nothing but little green men who, after hundreds of abductions of earthlings, still don’t know enough about our kind and thus keep on putting anal and other probes in the guinea pigs they...
Honestly, we never were “believers” where the so called “chemtrails” are considered, and we still wouldn’t dare saying whether the theory about it, being that governments or other organisations deliberately spread certain substances in the atmosphere with airplanes, is correct. We namely never have been very good at science and so we’re willing to accept without much ado that the...
The previous weeks we have not just been writing and drawing, rewriting and redrawing book 1, but were especially busy making our own publicity and promoting the free prequel to the comic series on the internet. A more than fulltime job which is not immediately generating lots of reactions, though we have received some positive response here and there. This weekend...
