About the series
In the late 1960s, Het Volk introduced the whimsical adventures of Thomas Pips, a lighthearted comic series that ran for 25 issues from 1966 to 1975. The strip is most closely associated with artist Leo De Budt, working under the pen name Buth, whose clean, expressive linework defined the character's cheerful world. Though a modestly scaled title, Thomas Pips offers a charming snapshot of mid-century Flemish comics, reflecting the playful, family-friendly storytelling of its era.
