Popel

Popel (2010–present), published by Trantow, is a compact three-issue comic series that carves out a distinctive space in the indie landscape. Known for its sharp, character-driven storytelling, the series is most closely associated with its creator, whose work here balances quiet observation with a subtle, offbeat humor. Though brief, Popel matters as a focused example of how a small-press comic can build a complete, resonant world in just a few issues.
