The Urban Legend

Over two issues in the mid-2010s, Norwegian publisher Gyldendal Norsk Forlag released The Urban Legend, a concise comic series written by Josef Tzegai Yohannes and illustrated by Newtasty. The series explores the modern mythmaking of city life, blending contemporary folklore with a distinct visual style. A brief but memorable entry in Scandinavian comics, it showcases a focused creative partnership and a fresh take on how stories shape urban identity.
