Moomin Deluxe: Volume Two (Hardcover)

A lavish celebration of Moominvalley, complete with hundreds of pages of comics, writing, and ephemera!

Since the first Moomin comic strip appeared in the London Evening News, Tove Jansson’s creations have become an international sensation, inspiring TV shows, cafés, a museum, and even an amusement park. Now, in this new deluxe edition, are hundreds of pages of Moomin comics starring Moominmamma, Snorkmaiden, Sniff, Mrs. Fillyjonk, and many more familiar faces.

Collected in this volume are the comics created by Lars Jansson, who took over when his sister, Tove, grew tired of the daily strip after half a decade. Lars had long been involved in the Moomin strips—he even translated them into English for publication. Tove taught him to draw, and after two years of sibling collaboration, Lars authored the strips independently for fourteen years.

Moomin Deluxe: Volume Two collects Lars Jansson’s contributions to the series alongside rare ephemera and tributes by renowned cartoonists and writers. Sumptuously designed, it is a must-have for any fan of Moominvalley. A beautiful tribute to the enduring legacy of community, humor, and respect for nature.
