About the series
A short-lived, seven-issue series from the German publisher Pardon, Slapstick-Grossband (1976–1977) collected wild, anarchic humor comics in a large-format magazine. The title translates to "Slapstick-Hardcover," and its pages were filled with the irreverent, often surreal, cartooning that defined the Pardon stable's satirical edge. While specific creators aren't widely credited in the series' lore, it stands as a key artifact of 1970s European comedic comics, capturing a moment when the line between children's humor and adult absurdity was gleefully blurred.
