Setting my Teams status to "disturb me not" forthwith.

the movie they made about this was quite tame compared to the comics, but still quite good

Indeed, but the movie is better known as "British Moomins".

Ooh, we're starting a new series!

There are 73 of them.

We'll have a daily comic for years, still.

Huzzah!

Edit: On that page I see a "0. Moomintroll and the End of the World" listed. Any reason we skipped that one?

I'm not sure an english version exists.

Regardless, #17 (Moomin and the Comet) adapts the same story.
