Lurchi -more childhood memories

When I was a kid in Germany you would get these comicbooks free at the checkout of the Salamander-shoestore.
They were beautiful watercolors done by the then nameless artist Heinz Schubel.
These strips have influenced me so much and come to think of it , the world of Kwak is still a bit of an afterglow of these strips and their universe.











My very own, 40 year old copy.You will recognize the silhouette of one of Walt's seven dwarfes, that I put on top of it at one time, and then, years later, removed it again.....



This adventure has been removed, because it's so totally un-pc, its a pure joy ....it's of course, still in my copy.

I recently heard rumors about a Lurchi-movie being in the works. Heaven forbid, keep your dirty, greedy hands off him !!!

  1. Good grief, Lurchi! I've still got those - wonderful drawings. This was pure art. Fantastic.

  2. I remember those days, buying shoes with your mum, when you stuck your foot under an x-ray machine to see if the shoe did fit! But you did get a Lurchi comic at the end of it. So all that radiation exposure was worth it at the end.
