Illustrierte Kinder-Klassiker

A short-lived but ambitious German series from Egmont Ehapa, Illustrierte Kinder-Klassiker (1997–1998) adapted beloved fairy tales into graphic novels over just three issues. The series drew on classic stories by the Brothers Grimm, with scripts by Judith Holfelder and Georg Tempel, while its art featured an impressive international roster including Miguelanxo Prado, Will Eisner, and Mazan. It stands as a curious, high-quality attempt to bring literary classics to a young comics audience through the work of celebrated illustrators.
