Existenzen und andere Abgründe

In 2011, Carlsen Comics collected Yoshihiro Tatsumi’s stark, humanist short stories for German readers in this one-issue volume. Spanning the acclaimed gekiga master’s career, the anthology pairs Tatsumi’s own art with translations by John Schmitt-Weigand, offering a concentrated dose of his unflinching look at postwar Japanese life. It’s a key entry point for German audiences into the work of a foundational alternative-manga creator.
