Hattest du eigentlich schon die Operation?

Peer Jongeling’s single-issue comic for Jaja Verlag, Hattest du eigentlich schon die Operation? (2020–present), is a terse, deadpan German-language meditation on a loaded question. Published by the acclaimed small press, the book distills everyday awkwardness into a spare, unsettling vignette. Jongeling’s stark linework and minimalist dialogue capture the tension between social obligation and personal privacy, making this a quiet but piercing entry in contemporary German comics.
