Komische Welt

In the early 1960s, the German publisher Bertelsmann launched Komische Welt, a one-issue comic that gathered the whimsical, single-panel cartoons of Danish artist Robert Storm Petersen. Known for his deceptively simple, surreal humor, Storm Petersen’s work in this collection offers a charming snapshot of mid-century European cartooning. While brief, the release stands as a distinctive showcase of a beloved humorist whose influence rippled through the comic strip tradition.
