Das Grauen der Kleinstadt

In Das Grauen der Kleinstadt (2022–present, Jaja Verlag), artist and writer Jan Blum crafts a single-issue comic that peers into the quiet dread lurking beneath small-town life. Published in Germany, this debut issue establishes a moody, atmospheric horror story that relies on unease rather than jump scares. Blum’s stark, expressive artwork and measured pacing make this a promising entry in contemporary German indie comics.
