Der Bankräuber

In 1962, Swiss publisher Diogenes Verlag introduced Der Bankräuber, a single-issue comic that stands as a concise, self-contained caper. The story follows a bank robber whose meticulously planned heist takes an unexpected turn, blending dry humor with crisp, European cartooning. While the series consists of just one issue, it remains a notable example of Diogenes' early foray into graphic storytelling, showcasing the publisher's commitment to sophisticated, character-driven narratives outside the mainstream.
