Boris, das Kartoffelkind

Anne Simon's Boris, das Kartoffelkind, published by Rotopol since 2022, follows a potato child navigating a world that doesn't quite understand him. This single-issue comic from the acclaimed French cartoonist blends deadpan humor with gentle melancholy, exploring themes of otherness and identity through its unlikely, starchy protagonist. Simon's distinctive, expressive linework brings a quiet charm to the story, making it a standout in contemporary European indie comics.
