Het boek was beter

A single-issue comic from Dutch publisher De Harmonie, Het boek was beter (1999) is a one-shot gag by writer-artist Stefan Verwey. The title playfully translates to "The book was better," a familiar complaint about film adaptations, and the comic itself is a concise, self-contained joke on that very notion. It stands as a neat, standalone piece of Verwey's humorous cartooning.
