Der Klassiker der blasphemischen Literatur Walter Moers' preisgekrönte, heiß umstrittene und unerreicht komische »wahre Geschichte« über den Erlöser, gefolgt von »Es ist ein ..., mein Sohn«. Eine abgründige und zum Brüllen komische Parodie auf das Neue Testament. 88 Seiten ketzern auf höchstem Niveau!

»Der Pinguin« ist wieder da - jetzt im Verlag seines Vertrauens! In der Arktis hört dich niemand schreien: Ein verliebtes Eskimopärchen, Alkohol, Drogen und ein geiler Pinguin bei minus 30 Grad - kann das gut gehen? Nicht wirklich - wie Walter Moers in seinem extremsten Comic erzählt. Ganz ohne Worte, aber in einer Bildersprache, die ihresgleichen sucht. Eine »very graphic novel« mit Sex, Gewalt und guter Laune.

Ein Leckerbissen für Moers-Fans und Kunstliebhaber »Ernst ist das Leben, heiter sei die Kunst« - mit diesem programmatischen Kafka-Zitat eröffnet Walter Moers seinen epochalen Beitrag zur Kunstgeschichte. Von steinzeitlicher Höhlenmalerei über Hieronymus Bosch und Albrecht Dürer, die Klassische Moderne eines Edvard Munch oder Pablo Picasso und weiter zu den Heroen der Gegenwart wie Georg Baselitz oder Edward Hopper - Walter Moers' Meisterwerk der Hochkomik zeigt die Geschichte der Weltkunst einmal ganz anders. So wie sie wirklich war oder hätte sein können, denn überall war einer immer schon da - das »Kleine Arschloch«.
