Behind the Scenes
The story was produced for an album that was used as a giveaway and never on sale for the public. As a gimmick, several of the supporting character are drawn in the likeness of (more or less) famous Swedish people. Some appear in the story as themselves, while most are in the story as other characters – although sometimes with inside jokes referring to their real life personalities.
