Der Garten Eden

Jean Effel’s Der Garten Eden is a single-issue comic published by Aufbau-Verlag in 1958, offering a whimsical, satirical take on the biblical creation story. The series, which has remained a standalone work rather than an ongoing run, showcases Effel’s distinctive, lighthearted artistic style and his talent for blending humor with philosophical commentary. Though brief, it stands as a charming artifact of mid-century European comics, reflecting the era’s appetite for clever, irreverent retellings of classic tales.
