Juggling work and family can be... hell. Calvin & Hobbes meets Call of Cthulhu as the sensationally popular heavy metal webcomic Belzebubs comes to print in a grim, goofy, and gorgeous hardcover.

Belzebubs is a "trve kvlt mockumentary" focusing on the everyday challenges of family life: raising kids, running a small business, and making time for worship. Except the kids are named Lilith and Leviathan, the business is a black-metal band, and the worship... isn't exactly aimed upstairs.

In a few short years, what started out as improvised social-media doodles has now become a wildly successful webcomic with hundreds of thousands of fans. The irresistible cartooning of JP Ahonen (Sing No Evil) combines relatable slice-of-life humor with over-the-top occult antics and references from metal music to Lovecraftian horror, making Belzebubs a devil of a good time.

JP Ahonen is the author of two Sunday newspaper comic strips published weekly in his native Finland. He also appeared in Kazu Kibuishi's Flight anthologies #4-8. His debut graphic novel Sing No Evil, co-written with KP Alare, gathered wide critical acclaim and has been published in seven languages.

After spending his teenage years immersed in making music and comics, Ahonen continued to the University of Lapland to study graphic design in the Faculty of Arts. Today, JP works as a full-time comic book artist and teaches classes in schools and universities. He lives in Tampere, Finland with his wife and kids.

He is the guest of honor of the 2018 Helsinki Comics Festival, held September 1-2, 2018.
