Hans Staden

In Hans Staden, Wartberg Verlag presents a single-issue historical comic based on the real-life 16th-century German adventurer’s captivity among the Tupinambá people of Brazil. Published in 2010, this graphic narrative adapts Staden’s own 1557 memoir, offering a stark, visually driven account of cultural collision and survival in the colonial era. The project distills a foundational travelogue into a concise, standalone format, marking the series as a focused historical adaptation.
