Achilles Wiggen

Henrik Sahlström brings a surreal, folkloric touch to this ongoing Ades Media/Albumförlaget series, which follows the strange misadventures of its titular character in a world where the mundane and the mythic blur. Launched in 2022, the three-issue run so far has established a distinctive voice in Swedish comics, blending deadpan humor with eerie, hand-drawn atmospherics. It matters as a showcase for Sahlström's singular vision and as a quietly expanding universe of oddball storytelling.
