Max and Moritz: A Rascals' History in Seven Tricks is a German children's book of 1865, written and drawn by Wilhelm Busch. Like the rest of Busch's work, it is a combination of sequential drawings and rhyming verses and a forerunner of comic strips.Max and Moritz, two naughty boys or should we say, young sociopaths subject the good citizens of a German town to a crossfire of cruel pranks. One after another the Widow, the Uncle, the Teacher, the Tailor, and the Baker fall prey to their rascally crimes, until the delinquents find their master in a crafty Farmer and their reign of terror comes to a surprisingly final end.Max and Moritz was a 19th century bestseller and spawned a train of parodies, pastiches and imitations. Its probably most successful derivate are The Katzenjammer Kids.As Max and Moritz is Wilhelm Busch's most well-known work, the most important German comics award is named after it. The Max-und-Moritz-Preis has been awarded every two years at the International Comic Salon in Erlangen since 1984.A roller coaster ride based on the book opened at Dutch Theme Park Efteling in June 2020.You can read it online (translation and original) here. | |

Cooking the Live Meal | |
| Max and Moritz / int_263b090b | comment |
Cooking the Live Meal (suggested): Breaking into the bakery, Max and Moritz fall into a trough of dough and are caught by the baker, who rolls them up like two loaves of bread and shoves them into his oven to bake them. There is no definitive indication that the baker intends to eat them, but the fact that the narration describes them as "brown and good to eat" when they come out sounds rather ominous. However, apparently contrary to the baker's expectation, Max and Moritz are still alive and eat through their crusts from the inside while the baker is not looking, and run off. | |

Disproportionate Retribution: While the boys aren't exactly angelic, the miller murders them in cold blood by pushing them in the mill feedstock chute and grinding the boys into pellets alive. | |

Meaningful Name | |
| Max and Moritz / int_6bda9a30 | comment |
Meaningful Name: The name of the village teacher, Lämpel, is a diminutive of Lampe (lamp); hinting that Lämpel is a "little light" rather than a shining beacon of knowledge. | |

Arson, Murder, and Jaywalking: After Max and Moritz put gunpowder into the teacher's pipe and it explodes, the author (or Lämpel?) muses: Who shall teach the children now? Who shall multiply the knowledge? What should the teacher use for smoking now? | |

Get Thee to a Nunnery | |
| Max and Moritz / int_95d67d24 | comment |
Get Thee to a Nunnery: Max and Moritz provoke a tailor by calling him "goat-Böck". Nowadays it just sounds like a pun on his name (well, in German). At this time though, it implied he was doing improper acts with goats. | |

For the Evulz | |
| Max and Moritz / int_adfd3165 | comment |
For the Evulz: For most of their tricks, Max and Moritz have no motives other than to cause pain and misery. Only nrs. 2 (stealing the Widow's roasted hens) and 6 (stealing the Baker's pretzels) have a material motive. | |
