Peridot

The long-running German series Peridot, launched by Panini Deutschland in 2003, follows the titular young heroine in a fantasy world of magic and mystery. Across its six issues, the story is most closely associated with writer and artist Sascha Wüstefeld, whose distinctive, manga-influenced artwork defines the series' visual identity. A beloved entry in the German comics landscape, Peridot stands out for its heartfelt, self-contained adventure and its role in showcasing the potential of European manga.
