The Quest, volume 3!

Wauter Mannaert reads and signs the Quest 3

Published on 16 January 2026

Sunday 15 February is going to be a delightful day at the Comic Art Museum, because we will be receiving a distinguished visitor: Wauter Mannaert, a Brussels-based comic book artist who currently has his own exhibition at our museum, will be dropping by for a special reading and signing session!

With “De queeste” (The Quest), Wauter Mannaert has created an exciting and funny trilogy about Pelli's search for the “beast”. The series updates the legend of King Arthur, but also tackles recognisable topics that you would expect to find in a youth comic in 2026: teenagers' relationships with their parents, ecology, emancipation.

The third and final part of “De queeste” has recently hit the shops, and we are celebrating this with a reading session and a book signing. You can also find out all about Wauter and his work in our exhibition “De Natuur van Wauter Mannaert” (The Nature of Wauter Mannaert). Extra fun? There is also an activity booklet to really go on a quest in the exhibition. In short, all the ingredients are there for a fun afternoon during the spring half-term holidays.

 

Schedule:

  • Reading session (NL) from 3:00 to 3:30 p.m.
  • Reading session (French) from 3.45 p.m. to 4.15 p.m.
  • Signing session from 4.30 p.m. to 5.30 p.m.

 

Free, but registration is required. You can register here.
