Comic-Trips

Comic-Trips, launched in 1980 by the German publisher Verlag rosa Winkel, is a single-issue comic that stands as a pioneering work in queer comics history. Associated with the early wave of LGBTQ+ themed graphic storytelling in Europe, this slim volume offers a snapshot of its era's underground sensibility. Its significance lies in being one of the first comics from a dedicated queer press, marking an important, if brief, milestone in the representation of gay lives and relationships in the medium.
