Michael Weber
I call this figure
The Hole Hunter
See the American magician Michael Weber! As a consultant, he worked for many Hollywood productions, as a magician he performs for the biggest companies, as a lecturer he shows magicians who is the dare-devil… and now he appears in the specialist periodical „Die Magische Welt“. Since it is me to create the caricatures for the aforementioned, you’ll find him, Mr. Weber, on the celluloid which means everything to him.
Find the salient point on the screen role – which is most probably the talking point in his workshops and catch sight of him climbing through the card. Which does not show the American Bicycle back: I took the liberty of furnishing it with the phoenix.
This cartoon appeared in the trade magazine „Magische Welt“ 3/2011. Find a full page ready to cut it out so that you can hang it up over your bed or behind the closet. Moreover, the journal offers a very interesting interview with him and tricks, tricks, tricks… of course.
Levent

Mister Camouflage
See the American magician Levent! Besides the standard magician ploy he finds million ways to punish his furry (!) rabbit in his comedy magic show. Nearly incidentally he is a worldclass manipulator. For me, his best gag is the „camouflage“ of cards. In which the back of one card has the same design as his shirt. I have transferred this absolutely amusing pink shirt camouflage on his rabbit. Some of his other stereotypes, fads and allusions are hidden in the picture.

Penn & Teller
I call this figure
misleading frauds
Americas leading scandal-magic duo “Penn and Teller” fascinate with their so called misleading frauds. This is a pseudo-explanation of a trick, which contradicts itself in the course of the show. They fool the audience regularly and in the goriest way. They genuinely saw a woman in half and leave her viscus on the stage behind or they burn the Star-Spangled Banner in the White House. They run their own TV show called “Bullshit”. They are firmely established in the US showbusiness.
The giant Penn is a raconteur; the small Teller generally uses mime while enchanting as much as he can. Both of them are posing in my cartoon, Penn more solid then Teller would have wished. They are famous for their identic grey clothing and Penns red nail.

Jeff McBride
I call this figure:
The Showdoctor
See the American magician Jeff McBride! He achieved world-fame for his Mask-Show and his card manipulations. Today he runs a Magic School in Las Vegas with classroom, library, masks on the walls and all kinds of props in cabinets. The translator of my books QUICK CHANGE 1 and QUICK CHANGE 2 lecturer there.
The first idea was to paint the great magic teacher with his mask, but wearing it, you might mix him up with one of my -even more famous- comic hero. He also conducts a Magic School – namely the most famous of the world – the Stuttgart Magic School! To be sincerly Stuttgart is not Las Vegas at all – but they are working on it, cutting down trees.
Anyway, I drew the Las Vegas teacher without his mask, but if you take a closer look, you can find them on the cards. And as I matter of course, he wears a tailcoat and top hat – guess what… he even wears it on stage(!!!).

Boris Wild
I call this figure
Serialkisser
See the French magician Boris Wild. In his world famous performance everything is about kisses, which he – the biggest heartthrob produces. Somebody working so hard on its image even in the global aspect… this is like a sitting duck for a caricaturist like me.
Thus a magician suited in the French national colours is (kiss) stamping everything he can lay his lips on, so that even the heart he enthrones melts by all this corniness.
