Comixene Paperback

Published in 1977 and 1978 by Edition Lehner & Knigge, Comixene Paperback is a two-issue series that served as a companion to the influential German comics magazine Comixene. These softcover volumes collected longer, self-contained works from European and international artists, showcasing the alternative and adult-oriented storytelling that defined the era's underground scene. Though brief, the series stands as a key document of the late-1970s German comics renaissance, offering a curated glimpse into the medium's artistic ambitions beyond the newsstand.
