Wat wij moeten weten

In this stark, two-issue Dutch comic series from De Bezige Bij, Willy Linthout (best known for the long-running J. Kruimel newspaper strip) combines his own expressive linework with found photographs to explore themes of memory, loss, and the weight of the past. Published from 2011 onward, the series distills a deeply personal, almost documentary approach into a compact, haunting narrative. Though brief in its run, Wat wij moeten weten stands as a striking example of Linthout's ability to push the comic form into raw, mature territory beyond his more famous comedic work.
