'Regina'. Translation: "Rascal, now I unleash my verdict over you!!" Next!"
Pétur Bjarnason was born in Iceland, but emigrated to Sweden in 1970. He made his debut as a comic artist with the cartoon suite 'Mix 1009' in Svenska Serier in 1979. He was the author of the comic strips 'Drottning Drusilla' and 'Regina', in fact two incarnations of the same strip about a tyrannical queen. 'Drottning Drusilla' started in the comic book Knasen in the early 1980s. It continued as 'Drusilla' in Stockholms-Tidningen and other papers, and was renamed to 'Regina' when it started in Dagens Nyheter in 1986.
By this time, Bjarnason also started to apply a more industrial way of producing his strip. The artist wrote the strip, while his wife selected pictures from sheets with standard poses that were cut out and pasted in the panels, after which Bjarnason finished the art. He passed away in 1997.
