Zürich by Mike

In the early 2000s, Swiss publisher Edition Moderne released Zürich by Mike, a two-issue comic series by the singular artist Mike Van Audenhove. Each issue offers a personal, sketchbook-like visual tour of the city, blending observational drawing with a quiet, wandering narrative. Van Audenhove’s minimalist linework and keen eye for urban detail make this a distinctive, intimate portrait of Zürich from an artist deeply associated with the city. Though brief, the series stands as a charming, self-contained document of place and perspective.
