H What has been happening to our harmonious and understandable inner world in the last few years? The templates in it are torn one after another, and the horizons expand uncontrollably. This is greatly facilitated by travel agencies, the Internet, new technologies and, of course, book publishers. It is thanks to the latter that we suddenly learn that the fairy tale familiar from childhood with the only correct illustrations is adapted and illustrated by a dozen of the world's best artists, that there are a great many options for using this or that familiar plot, that the favorite writer turns out to have written all sorts of things!

For example, Tove Jansson wrote not only several original fairy tales about the Moomins, which we usually read aloud to children 5-8 years old. It turned out that she also wrote Moomin books for the little ones (“What next?” and “Who will console Knutt?”, beautifully published for us by “Samokat”), drew illustrations for “Alice in Wonderland” by L. Carroll (which started children's series published by Ripol) and created many comics for adults and older children with the same Moomins. So many that there were enough of them for as many as 5 voluminous volumes (and if you add to them the comics drawn by her brother Lars, then it’s scary to think how many volumes there will be, because there are 73 comic stories in total). Tove Jansson did not address her comics to a children's audience - these were stories for adults and for family reading, which she did on commission starting in 1952 (in the period 1954-57, her comics were regularly published in the London newspaper The Evening News). Since 2010, the Zangavar publishing house has taken on the good mission of translating and publishing these 5 volumes of Moomin comics in Russian and thereby expanding our horizons in two directions at once. Firstly, we learn that Tove Jansson knew how to create not only worlds of comfort, family love and children's philosophical fairy tales, she, it turns out, was great at making jokes in the world of adults. Secondly, someone will finally understand that comics are not necessarily a genre for those who are stupid and lazy to read, it’s just a genre in itself, with its masterpieces and a hefty share of “consumer goods”, without which no direction today art doesn't exist.

IN In August 2012, the third volume of comics was presented to readers, and it contains five new stories translated by Anastasia Beresneva. In each of them we meet the Moomin family, their usual surroundings and a variety of problems - adult, fantastic or absurd - that invade the Moomin world. In the first comic, three disasters befall Moominvalley at once: the relationship between Moomintroll and Miss Snork seems to be undergoing a crisis, the valley itself becomes a sea due to flooding, and in this very sea Moomintroll finds a beauty and a circus star, whom he immediately falls in love with. Next, we watch hilarious and well-known scenes for almost every couple of quarrels, jealousy, separation, a new meeting and the regaining of the former strength of feelings. In the second story, a misfortune befalls Moominvalley in the form of drought and a box of tropical plant seeds. As a result of the cataclysm, readers will learn about what happens when two biologists of different specializations meet, understand the essential difference between will and environment, and again see a number of situations typical of couples in love. The third tale is completely fantastic, because this time Moominvalley is hit not by a flood, heat or any other natural disaster, but by a real flying saucer with a Martian on board. The Moomin family behaves as usual: Moominmama tries to feed and reconcile everyone, Moomintroll plays with interest and learns the unknown, Sniff tries his best to benefit himself... The cutest one here is the strict police inspector, who is so impressed by this whole situation It’s exhausting that he declares: “If this continues, I’ll leave the service and become a cartoonist or do something equally stupid...”.

The theme “Moominpappa and the Sea” is close and understandable for all readers and admirers of Jansson’s books, so the next comic book of the third volume of the collection will not be a surprise. Moominpappa is going to become a lighthouse keeper and not just like that, but because he wants to write a book about the sea. When Moominmummy is packing up things to move and settling into a place that is not intended for any form of life, Too-Tikki teams up with a little ghost and gives him a master class, and Moominpappa suffers yet another torment of creativity - it’s very funny. Besides, the Moomin family, as always, is having a good time! The last comic in the book is the least childish and the most ironic. There you will find quite a few quite accurate comments about the meaning of interest clubs and their activities. The funny thing is that Moominmama becomes a member of this kind of club, and even founds her own club, which can “wow” anyone.

N Despite the fact that these Moomin stories bear little resemblance to the fairy-tale stories we are used to and are generously diluted with irony, situational humor and wordplay, the Moomins still remain themselves. Each of the stories ends with a return to familiar harmony, the Moomin house and the family hearth.

Parent readers will probably wonder, who exactly are these kinds of comics intended for? Yes, perhaps, to everyone who is not averse to reading them - children who have left a younger age, adults, fans of the Moomins, fans of the comic book genre, simply curious readers greedy for new experiences. In the future, we are waiting for the fourth and fifth volumes of the complete collection of comics by Tove Jansson, and in general we continue to wait for wonderful surprises from the Zangavar publishing house.

Jansson T. Moomins: complete collection of comics in 5 volumes: [vol. 3]. – M.: Zangavar, 2012. – 104 p.: ill. – ISBN 978-5-904662-06-6

Description of the Moomin comic: The Complete Comic Book Collection by Tove Jansson. Volume 1:

In 2010, the inhabitants of Moominvalley turn 65! Their story began with Tove Jansson’s book “Little Trolls and the Big Flood”, published back in 1945, and continued with 8 more stories. Since then, books about the Moomins have gained a huge number of fans all over the world, and their characters have migrated to animated series, theaters and opera, on T-shirts and posters.

But few people know that in 1954, Tove Jansson accepted an offer from the largest newspaper in the world at that time, the London Evening News, to begin publishing original comics about the Moomins. They were read by 20 million people every day in more than 40 countries for 20 years... Now the time has come for Russian-speaking readers to meet well-known and completely new characters invented by Tove Jansson, but in the form of comic book heroes.

In the first volume of The Moomins, you will discover the magical world of Moominvalley, a world of naive dreamers, irritable schemers and creative amateurs involved in a whirlpool of adventures, secrets and surprises. You will witness the accidental transformation of Moomintroll into a modern artist, and the enterprising Sniff into a merchant of the elixir of life, find out what kind of package was sent to Aunt Jane and where Snufkin lured her, see the beauty Miss Snork squeezing into a bikini, and, among other things, meet with the sinister mummies of the Moomin ancestors, possessed by pyromania!

Here is the first volume of Tove Jansson's Complete Comic Book Collection, published for the first time in Russian. This is our gift both to the Moomins themselves celebrating their anniversary, and to all those whose lives were changed by the world invented by the famous writer and artist Tove Jansson.

The time has come for Russian-speaking readers to meet well-known and completely new characters invented by Tove Jansson, in the form of comic book heroes. Favorite characters from well-read books continue to live their lives. :-)

A series of books with real comics by Tove Jansson began to be published in Russia - and in what form! It’s impossible to imagine anything better! The book is magnificent (so far we only have the first volume in our hands, although three volumes out of five have already been published) - the binding is perfect, the cover feels unusual, the paper is excellent, and the printing quality is excellent.

Moomins, volume 1

So far we have only bought the first volume - the book is quite expensive, it is expensive to buy everything at once, and we had to first see what it is. There will be 5 volumes, while only the first 3 volumes are on sale. Now, of course, we will collect the rest.

There is probably no better option to get acquainted with this genre - comics. Children over 10 years old read this book without stopping, and not just once, but many times in a row. And they bring out a lot of wise thoughts from there - these are the wise Moomintrolls! Therefore, I HIGHLY recommend the book. At least one, all 5 are not necessary.

I think there is no point in telling the plot and praising the drawings - this is the best classic!

Once again about the quality of the publication. The book is very pleasant to the touch, the cover is like fabric. The pages are printed on thick matte chalk, do not reflect at all, and have a yellowish tint (special paper so that the eyes do not get tired of the contrast of black and white). The book is tall, quite thin, format 310x220, 96 pages. The drawings are the author's, we think everyone is familiar with them.

You will witness the accidental transformation of Moomintroll into a modern artist, and the enterprising Sniff into a merchant of the elixir of life, find out what kind of package was sent to Aunt Jane and where Snufkin lured her, see the beauty Miss Snork squeezing into a bikini, and, among other things, meet with the sinister mummies of the Moomin ancestors, possessed by pyromania!

Book chapters (volume 1):

Moomintroll and the robbers
- Moomintroll and Family Life,
- Moomintroll on the Riviera,
- Deserted Moomin Island.

Moomins, volume 2

This book in the labyrinth now (September 2012) is listed as expected. Now we can't wait for it to appear.

In the second volume of "The Moomins" by Tove Jansson from the Complete Comics Collection, you will read four new stories: about jealousy among snowdrifts and ice floes, a mysterious housekeeper, about how to build a house from scrap materials and about the beginning of a new life!

According to the custom of their ancestors, the Moomins will try to hibernate, but sudden insomnia will turn into a winter sports day and competitions with Mr. Brisk, an obsessed winter sports enthusiast. The fickle and amorous Mymla will compete in an exciting fight for the heart of a vigorous athlete with Miss Snork. The Moomins will meet their new neighbor, Fillyjonk, and also teach the depressed maid Misabel how to wash dishes. Mummy will appear on the Moomins' doorstep with a litter of 17 children, including Little My. And finally, the Teacher will appear on the stage and explain to the Moomins that, contrary to their opinion, they are unhappy, and the only way out of the situation is to free themselves from the shackles of habits and return to nature! But the acquired freedom will backfire on the restless family...

Here (volume 2):

Winter Moomin games,
- Maid for Moominmama,
- Moomintroll Builds a House,
- Moomintroll and New Life.

The plot of “Moomintroll and New Life” turns out to be a direct statement on the topic of ideology, and surprisingly relevant today, although half a century has passed. The quiet life in Moominvalley is disrupted by the appearance of two gurus: the Teacher confuses its inhabitants with stories about a “free life”, and his opponent the Oracle threatens with terrible punishments for licentiousness and reminds of the frailty of all things. And Moominpappa, in a fit of downshifting, cheerfully drinks moonshine on a tree, or in despair paints the walls black and gives up the little joys of life. In the end, Moominmama and a conversation over delicious tea, as well as a couple of glasses of wine in honor of reconciliation, win. And against the backdrop of a growing number of conflicts, let as many people as possible (no matter children or adults) remember that there is a way to resolve them.

The main thing is to be clear from the very beginning that this is not a blatant exploitation of a well-promoted brand. The comics were drawn and written by Tove Jansson herself between 1955 and 1959 for the London Evening News newspaper. Moreover, she first turned to the format even earlier, in 1947, that is, the very next year after the release of Moomintroll and the Comet. It also contains four original stories in which the inhabitants of Moominvalley survive winter, build houses, rehabilitate servants and start a new life.

It’s not for nothing that “The Moomins” are considered an ideal book for the whole family: children and adults read them with equal pleasure, extracting completely different meanings from the same events.

The afterword to the second book of Tove Jansson's Complete Comics Collection was written by a classic of children's literature, a wonderful writer Grigory Oster.

Moomins, volume 3

I don’t have this book yet, but of course I will. :-)

Publishing house "Zangavar" has released the third volume of the complete collection of comics about the Moomins. Tove Jansson's comic book consists of another five amazing stories: about Moomintroll who suddenly falls in love; about a valley that has turned into an impassable jungle; about the Martian invasion; about the mysterious lighthouse and the creative impulses of Moominpappa, as well as about the idle club life that shook up the inhabitants of Moominvalley!

New Stories Volume 3:

Love and Moomintroll,
- Jungle in Moominvalley,
- Moomintroll and the Martians,
- Moominpappa and the Sea,
- Club Life in Moominvalley.

The universal flood did not spare Moominvalley... Streams of water threw the remains of a traveling circus tent into the valley, and with it Moomin's new love, arousing pangs of jealousy in the hitherto frivolous Miss Snork. The stifling heat disrupted the climatic balance of the cozy little world dozing between the pines and stones, causing a bountiful harvest of ficus, palm trees and vines and populating the entire area with alien fauna.

A wandering flying saucer from Mars made an unexpected visit (or, more simply put, fell!) into the garden carefully nurtured by Moominmama. A mysterious lighthouse lost in the swells of the sea welcomes an impetuous and energetic caretaker (who decided to temporarily change his top hat to a windbreaker), and the Moomin family meets the taciturn Too-tikki.

And finally, trying to keep up with the times, the Moomins plunge headlong into what turns out to be not so carefree club life with all its burdensome attributes and conventions...

Moomins, volumes 4 and 5

They have not yet been published (in September 2012 these books were not yet on sale).

Moominvalley is in the grip of a fever...

Read completely

The fourth volume of Tove Jansson's Complete Comics Collection contains five new stories from the life of the inhabitants of Moominvalley: about travels to the harsh Wild West and the Rococo era, made with the help of a time machine; about the power of personal magnetism and manifestations of working consciousness; about a falling comet and the expectation of the end of the world, as well as about a tassel of pure gold on the tail of Moomintroll!
Using a couple of plumbing tools, the active Moominpappa built a time machine from a sewing machine and a broken watch! The temptation to use it for its intended purpose leads a restless family to the vast prairies of the Wild West. As a result of a risky experiment, the newly-made Western heroes will experience encounters with cowboys and Indians, scammers and well-wishers who inhabited American lands in the mid-19th century. Turn the car wheel... and Miss Snork, dreaming of the romanticism of powdered wigs, meets a rebellious servant of the muses and immediately falls into the pool of love.
Moominvalley is in the grip of a job fever. The former lazy days have passed, and some slackers are pushed by the pricks of an awakened conscience onto the path of correction and the acquisition of unusual work calluses.
The next chapter is Tove Jansson's timeless classic, but in comic book form: a comet is approaching Moominvalley! The exodus of all residents predetermines the future fate of those who did not join - the Moomins are left alone with the inevitability of a catastrophe and philosophical thoughts, but they do not lose heart here either!
And finally - the story of how, as a result of a mysterious illness, Moomintroll's tail turned to gold and what this led to...
2nd edition.
