Simon Gärdenfors
Simon Gärdenfors is a Swedish cartoonist, rapper, television presenter, and radio host.
His comics are drawn in a round icon-like cartoony style, although their content is often realistic or autobiographical.
Alongside his childhood friend Calle Thörn, he is also a member of the underground hip-hop duo "Las Palmas" that received a lot of airtime on Swedish radio in the fall of 2004, primarily with the song "Spökskrivare" ("Ghostwriter"), claiming that it actually was Simon who had written all famous hip-hop songs. He is also part of an additional hip-hop project, Far och Son (Father and Son), featuring Frej Larsson of Slagsmålsklubben.
His graphic novel The 120 Days of Simon (Simons 120 dagar) was published in English translation by Top Shelf Productions in 2010.
