Motel Universe 3

“Joakim is carving a place for himself in the image world. His books run the gamut from a classic comic approach to the more eclectic. But all have an edge that mixes surreal storytelling and graphics. I recommend his most recent Motel Universe.” - Print Magazine

“Drescher, a Danish cartoonist and illustrator, has a naïve, slightly ratty line that reminds me a little of early '80s Lynda Barry, while his childlike, awkward, surpassingly strange character designs and penchant for patterning recall Mark Beyer.

“Joakim Drescher is a very funny guy indeed… …We’re seeing an ennui-laden winged creature inspired by Dante’s Inferno one minute, and a guy having sex with what appears to be a mermaid the next—even the hairy character caught in flagrante delicto by Drescher’s paintbrush seems to be aware of just how weird it all is.” - AIGA Eye on Design

“He draws the most disturbing and exciting scenes imaginable.” - Cultura Collectiva
