![]() The various strands come together and Blomkvist and Salander have to team up to bring down both a fascist candidate and a racist hate group.Īccording to Runberg, he was originally offered the opportunity to adapt Lagercrantz' new Millennium novel The Girl in the Spider's Web but was only shown the beginning of the book at the time. ![]() ![]() Runberg's original plot pits Lisbeth Salander against the Spartans, an extreme right-wing group who are kidnapping her hacker friends to commit break into a major database, while Mikael Blomkvist and his magazine Millennium investigate the background of a populist right-wing candidate preaching racist and anti-immigrant rhetoric to prove his neo-Nazi background. There have been few reviews and write-ups on it in the English language press, but having read it, I could argue that Runberg, Belen and Ianniciello's graphic novel is a truer and better sequel to Larsson's original trilogy than Lagercrantz' novels. The story is Runberg's own creation, separate from novelist David Lagercrantz' official sequels The Girl in the Spider's Web and The Girl Who Takes an Eye for an Eye. ![]() I spoke briefly writer Sylvain Runberg and artists Belen Ortega and Claudia Ianniciello to talk about The Girl Who Danced with Death. ![]()
