Belzebubs
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Belzebubs is a Finnish webcomic and fictional black metal band created by JP Ahonen.[1]
History
The webcomic was first launched by JP Ahonen, a freelance illustrator from Finland, in 2016 after finding inspiration in a sketch he made for an Inktober challenge.[4]
In 2019, a full-length album was released under the Belzebubs name, entitled Pantheon of the Nightside Gods. Produced by Century Media and Edge of Sanity vocalist Dan Swanö, the names of the participating musicians have not been officially released.[5][6] That year, the first Belzebubs book was also published.[7][8]
In 2020, Finnish animation studio Pyjama Films and Finnish public broadcaster Yle began making a TV series based on the webcomic.[9]
On 15 February 2024, Ahonen and 3D animator Oscar Díaz Castillo released the "360° Hexperience", a crowdfunded Belzebubs concert set in virtual reality.[10]
