Jan, Jans en de kinderen

From 1992 to 1993, Dutch publisher Lecturama collected six issues of Jan, Jans en de kinderen, the beloved family comic strip by Jan Kruis. This series follows the everyday adventures of the Tromp family—Jan, Jans, and their children Catootje, Jeroentje, and Karlijn—alongside their mischievous red cat. Kruis, both writer and artist, brought warmth and gentle humor to domestic life, making this a cornerstone of Dutch comic tradition. It matters as a cherished, slice-of-life classic that captures the charm of ordinary family moments.
