Der nasse Fisch

Set in the seedy underbelly of 1920s Berlin, Der nasse Fisch is a German crime comic from Carlsen Comics that launched in 2018. The series, currently spanning a single issue, is most associated with writer and artist Arne Jysch, who adapts the gritty, noir-tinged world of the original novel. It matters as a taut, atmospheric entry in the European graphic novel tradition, bringing a classic German crime story to a new visual medium.
