Der Blechbauchmaier

From 2018 onward, Swiss publisher Edition Moderne presents Der Blechbauchmaier, a single-issue comic by artist Serpentina Hagner. The story follows a metal-bellied protagonist through a whimsical, visually inventive journey that blends absurdist humor with poignant reflections on identity and belonging. Hagner's distinctive, expressive artwork defines the series, making it a standout example of contemporary European graphic storytelling.
