Geez, I didn't expect that Moomin comics might need a [suicide] content warning.

Holy fuck, you can really tell it was created by a Finn.

I thought she was a swede.

According to Wikipedia, Tove Jansson was a Swedish speaking Finn, and it was published originally in Finland, albeit in Swedish.

I always heard it referred to as Finnish until now.

I find it funny that Moomintroll doesn't normally wear clothes, but dons a bathing suit to go swimming.

This is the true essence of Moomin. The comics are great!
