Rodion Tanaev - Master i Margarita
English > Adaptations > Comic strips > Complete albums > Rodion Tanaev
The first who ever succeeded in making a complete comic strip adaptation of The Master and Margarita was the Russian comic strip author Rodion Borisovich Tanaev (° 1962). Tanaev tried to stick as much as possible to the original text of the novel.
The album was published in 1997 but is hard to find these days. Therefore it is published now on the Nazer Comics website. Scans of all pages are packed in 3 zip-archives. As the owner of the website has promised, the fourth part will be placed online soon, but this promise was never kept. So the possibility that it will really happen is smaller by the day.
For three years I've been trying, with the help of many fans of this site, to find the remaining pages. It seemed to be a hopeless task until November 2010. Maarten Van Tieghem, a Master student of East European Lan-guages and Cultures at the Ghent University, wanted to write a thesis about the comics based on The Master and Margarita, and found someone in Moscow who has a copy of Rodion Tanaev's comic strip. Martin was so kind to send us the scans of the remaining pages. Needless to say that we are very grateful...
