De avonturen van Pom en Teddy

For nearly half a century, Paul Rijperman has chronicled the gentle, wordless adventures of a little boy and his bear in the Dutch strip De avonturen van Pom en Teddy (1979–present). Published primarily in the Netherlands, this long-running series stands as a quiet, heartfelt example of European children's comics, with Rijperman’s warm linework and expressive pantomime storytelling making it a beloved staple for generations of young readers.
