B. Virtanen taskukirjat

In 2008, the Finnish publisher Arktinen Banaani launched B. Virtanen taskukirjat, a pocket-sized comic series that has run for five issues and counting. Most consistently illustrated by artist Ilkka Heilä, this series stands as a compact, ongoing showcase for the beloved, long-running newspaper strip character B. Virtanen, offering readers a handy, collected format for his gentle, observational humor.
