Tischlein deck dich und Knüppel aus dem Sack

F. K. Waechter’s single-issue comic for Rowohlt, published in 1972, adapts the classic Grimms’ fairy tale Tischlein deck dich (The Wishing-Table) and its companion tale Knüppel aus dem Sack (The Magic Cudgel). Waechter, serving as both writer and artist, brings his signature satirical and playful linework to these folk stories, reimagining them for a modern audience. This standalone volume stands as a distinctive, humorous entry in the publisher’s catalog, showcasing Waechter’s talent for blending traditional narrative with his own irreverent visual style.
