Lilla Berlin

In the mid-2010s, Swedish publisher Kolik förlag released Lilla Berlin, a five-issue comic series that reimagined the German capital as a whimsical, intimate stage for everyday life. Created by a small team of local talents, the series blends slice-of-life storytelling with a gentle, surreal touch, offering a charmingly offbeat portrait of Berlin that feels more like a shared secret than a travel guide. Its quiet humor and warm, observational tone made it a standout in the Scandinavian indie comics scene, proving that even a sprawling metropolis can be captured in small, personal moments.
