Nick Knatterton

Cover of a German collected edition of Nick Knatterton comics.

Nick Knatterton is the name of a West German comic strip and the name of its main character, a private detective. The strip was drawn by Manfred Schmidt (1913–1999) from 1950 to 1959.

It was initially released in the German magazine Quick.[1]

The visual style of the comics is cartoony, but still realistic enough for the comic to be taken as a (at least mostly) serious detective comic. It is characterised by its unique style of humour, most of which derives from allusions to current political affairs in the Federal Republic of Germany of the 1950s.[1]
