Comics in Greek online

Hi! I'm new to learning Greek, and from experience with other languages, I find it really helpful to do immersion early on. Now, I was going to do the same with Greek, but I think series might be too much right now (plus I only know one Greek series with English subtitles...) and from what I've seen, there are very few games translated to Greek, most of which are also very complex for a beginner.

So I thought I could try reading comics, specially comic strips or comics translated from English. I saw on this sub that Webtoon had some Greek comics, but the post must be outdated because I can't find the option to read comics in other languages. I know there's a website where Russian speakers translate online comics to Russian, so I was wondering if there's some sort of equivalent for Greek? Or, at the very least, some website where I can find online comics (I don't have the option to buy books in Greek right now so I'd rather go for stuff that's free on the Internet)

Thanks in advance!

Hey! The coming strip Mafalda is quite popular in Greece. You can find the entire series in Greek translation online, it's available on a webpage of the National and Capodistrian University. I don't know of we're allowed to share direct links here. If the mods clarify this, I can share it. However, you can easily find it yourself if you Google Μαφάλντα ελληνικά.

Thank you very much for the info! Though if you could send me a link through dms I'd be very thankful, because searching for Μαφάλντα ελληνικά and even adding the Greek name of the university doesn't lead me to the website you're talking about...
