Mumin [album] #5
In "Sniffs badort," Sniff inherits a sports shop and, true to form, dives into turning a profit through increasingly absurd advertising schemes—only to pivot unexpectedly toward chasing athletic glory. Written and illustrated by Lars Jansson, with lettering by Tove and Lars Jansson, this 1979 installment blends deadpan humor with the character’s signature misadventures. The cover by Peter Bigestans captures Sniff’s chaotic energy in a striking, stylized portrait.
In "Polismästarens brorson," a black sheep named Jo takes an unexpected turn from woolly beginnings to become a hyper-organized constable with a mission to crack down on criminals and drug smugglers across the countryside. The story follows his quirky transformation with the kind of dry humor and whimsical energy that defines the Mumin series.
When Sniff inherits a sports shop, he dives into the world of advertising with his usual over-the-top flair, trying every trick in the book to boost sales. But when that doesn’t pan out, he sets his sights on becoming a professional athlete—though his methods are as unorthodox as ever.
