About the series
Claire Bretécher’s Agrippina (1989–1994, Rowohlt) is a sharp, satirical German comic series starring the titular young woman navigating the absurdities of modern life with a dry, cynical wit. Across just three issues, Bretécher’s distinctive, expressive linework and keen observational humor skewer everything from relationships to societal pretensions. Originally a French creation, this German-language edition brought Bretécher’s acerbic, feminist-leaning comedy to a new audience, cementing her as a master of the European bande dessinée.
