Dickie: Natural Born Loser

Dickie is a loser. He is constantly betrayed by his own shortcomings, desires and naivety, crushed by the indifference of the world in these one-page silent cartoons. Originally published in Belgium over 20 years ago under its Flemish name ''Boerke'' by Nanuq.be, the comic is well known for pushing boundaries and challenging traditional comic norms. Pieter de Poortere''s storytelling skills and creative genius have earned Dickie a devoted following and critical acclaim. Now his wonderfully cynical humour and innocent graphic style can also be enjoyed in silent English.
