Douwe Dabbert is a Dutch fantasy comics series by artist Piet Wijn and scenarist Thom Roep [nl].

[1][2] Douwe Dabbert is a fantasy comic set in an undetermined past, though in two stories "De Weg naar west" ("The Way to West") and "De zee naar zuid" ("The Sea to South") he meets representatives of the West-Indische Compagnie, which would put those of his adventures before 1792.

But then in "De tanden van Casius Gaius"("The teeth of Casius Gaius") we see the royal Dutch coat of arms which would make that one and the following adventures take place after 1815 as that was the year the kingdom of Netherlands was created.

Despite the historical context the comic makes use of many fantastic elements such as witchcraft, fictitious kingdoms and anthropomorphic animals.

They were pre-published in small episodes in the Dutch magazine Donald Duck.
