LOGICOMIX
Covering a span of sixty years, the graphic novel Logicomix was inspired by the epic story of the quest for the Foundations of Mathematics.
This was a heroic intellectual adventure most of whose protagonists paid the price of knowledge with extreme personal suffering and even insanity. The book tells its tale in an engaging way, at the same time complex and accessible. It grounds the philosophical struggles on the undercurrent of personal emotional turmoil, as well as the momentous historical events and ideological battles which gave rise to them.
The role of narrator is given to the most eloquent and spirited of the story’s protagonists, the great logician, philosopher and pacifist Bertrand Russell. It is through his eyes that the plights of such great thinkers as Frege, Hilbert, Poincaré, Wittgenstein and Gödel come to life, and through his own passionate involvement in the quest that the various narrative strands come together.\visit the official website/
CREDITS:Alecos Papadatos was born in 1959 in Thessaloniki, Greece. Growing up with a natural attraction tο cartooning, Alecos learned to draw on his own, constantly scripting and drawing to the amusement of relatives and classmates. He earned a degree in Economics from the University of Thessaloniki and continued his studies at Sorbonne IV in Paris. In 1984, he abandoned economics and embarked on a new career, devoting himself exclusively to drawing cartoons.
Alecos studied and worked in Paris for six years (1984-1990), animating for Cartooneurs Associes and the subsidiary company of CANAL+, Le Studio Ellipse. At Studio Ellipse, he worked as an animator and animation director for the television seriesBabar (65X30’), a co-production between the Canadian Nelvana and the French CANAL+.
In 1990, Alecos returned to Athens with his wife and collaborator, Annie Di Donna, and founded his own cartoon production studio, Spicy Toons. The studio became involved in numerous projects collaborating with companies such as TF1, CANAL+ (France), Blue Mountain Productions (Switzerland), Collingwood Productions (England), Odec Kid Cartoons (Belgium), and Munich Animation (Germany) in animating and storyboarding television series and full length animation films. Between the years 1990-2003, Alecos collaborated with Greek advertising firms, supervising and designing animation projects, as well as overseeing the production of their animated cartoons, in 2D and 3D animation. Alecos’ love for drawing would eventually lead him to the Greek print media, where he wrote and drew comics for two major newspapers, Eleftherotypia and Vima. The most fascinating experience in Alecos’ professional life came with his collaboration with Apostolos Doxiadis onLogicomix.
Alecos Papadatos is currently working on a graphic novel with the temporary title, Democracy.

A cartoon (from the Italian "cartone" and Dutch word "karton", meaning strong, heavy paper or pasteboard) is a full-size drawingmade on sturdy paper as a study or modello for a painting, stained glass or tapestry. Cartoons were typically used in the production of frescoes, to accurately link the component parts of the composition when painted on damp plaster over a series of days (giornate).
