About the series
A single-issue German comic, Die fromme Helene (1872–present) from Bassermann, is a satirical classic by Wilhelm Busch, whose sharp, wordless panel storytelling and darkly comic moralizing about a pious woman's hypocrisy established a foundational template for the modern comic strip. Its enduring influence on sequential art and humor makes it a landmark in the medium's history.
