Engelmann

Nicolas Mahler’s Engelmann, a single-issue comic published by L’Association in 2011, distills a quiet, deadpan character study into a compact form. Known for his minimalist, expressive linework and wry storytelling, Mahler crafts a deceptively simple narrative that lingers on the absurdities of everyday life. This series matters as a signature example of his European alt-comedy sensibility, where less is always more.
