Das Küken, die Maus und das Bier

In the pages of the Swiss anthology Strapazin, Das Küken, die Maus und das Bier (The Chick, the Mouse, and the Beer) has been a playful, recurring series since 2002. Running across three issues so far, this short-form comic strips its premise down to its title's three core elements, offering a minimalist, absurdist vignette with each installment. It stands as a distinct, lightly surreal voice within the European alternative comics scene, a small but memorable experiment in narrative reduction.
