Two of Poland’s best-loved cartoon characters, Kajko i Kokosz, are getting their own show.
Animation lovers will soon get a new treat courtesy of Netflix, when the adaptation of Janusz Christa’s classic comic book
Kajko i Kokosz is released some time next year.
The comics, published between 1972 and 1991, star the titular two Slavic warriors and depict their medieval battles against dragons, witches, and evil knights.
Often compared with
Asterix and Obelix, Kajko i Kokosz stories always, in addition to fantasy battles, featured tongue-in-cheek references to the vagaries of everyday life under communism, the labour unions, bureaucracy, and commodity shortages.
