Gas

Joakim Pirinen’s Gas is a singular, surreal Swedish comic series that launched in 1987 under the Tago imprint, blending deadpan absurdity with a raw, expressionistic line. Pirinen serves as both writer and artist, crafting a deeply personal, often grotesque vision that has made him a cult figure in European alternative comics. Though the series began with a single issue, its influence extends far beyond its length, establishing Pirinen as a distinctive voice in the underground comix tradition.
