Boerke Bijbel

Boerke Bijbel is a single-issue comic published in 2014 by Ballon Media, a Belgian publisher. The series is most associated with its creator, the Flemish cartoonist Pieter De Poortere, whose signature deadpan, stylized artwork and darkly absurd humor define the world of his silent, mustachioed character Boerke. This particular issue offers a compact, standalone collection of one-page gags that reimagine biblical stories through De Poortere’s uniquely minimalist and mischievous lens. It stands as a distinctive, offbeat entry in the Boerke oeuvre, showcasing the artist’s talent for wringing comedy from the collision of sacred text and deadpan slapstick.
