About the series
Dick Briel’s three-issue series for Arboris, running from 1999 to 2000, follows the adventures of the titular Professor Palmboom, a scholarly explorer navigating a world of gentle, old-fashioned adventure. Briel both writes and illustrates the series, crafting a whimsical, detailed comic that feels like a lost European classic. Though brief, Professor Palmboom is a lovingly crafted showcase of Briel’s singular storytelling and artistic style.
