The Abrafaxe reach the "Golden City" of Prague in the year 1600 - and celebrate several anniversaries at once: it is the 600th issue of the comic magazine "Mosaik" with the heroes Abrax, Brabax and Califax. The trio with the bulbous noses is also celebrating its 50th birthday - and the magazine itself is turning 70. The anniversary issue marks the start of a new, longer Abrafaxe adventure, as announced brick by brick by Berlin publisher Mosaik.
"Mosaik" was launched in the GDR in 1955 and is now the oldest German comic still in publication. Back then, graphic artist Hannes Hegen created Dig, Dag and Digedag - the Digedags. They traveled to different countries and through different times. Hegen left the company in 1975 after a dispute with the GDR publisher Junge Welt.
