This was a quarterly comic book published from 1975 to 1980 by Ehapa Verlag (now Egmont Ehapa). They were also published in the UK as “Frizz and Friends”.

They were about a boy called Fratz, with five strands of hair and a speech impediment. There were also some other characters, like Monika (a girl who always beats up Fratz), Schmutzi (Frizz’s dirty best friend), Fitti (Fratz’s dog), Chico (a country boy), Amphibio (a vegetarian t-rex), and Flumbo (a green elephant).

If anyone has any information about this comic book (or its UK version), please leave a comment!

  1. Is the rest as awful as the sample?

    It could be so terrible that it‘s actually good!

  2. You can always email Ehapa Egmont – they have an archive.

    Seems to have been an European release of a comic of Brazilian origin “*Turma da Mônica*”:

    So, you might want to head over to [r/Brazil/](https://www.reddit.com/r/Brazil/) due to the way higher popularity over there.

    In Germany, right now they seem to be interesting for few collectors only. They were funny but may have lost something in translation from Portuguese.

  3. It’s a Brazilian comic book that’s still published to this day.

    The original name is turma da mônica (Monica’s gang)
