Markus Söder tells a Bussi-Bear anecdote at the comic event in Erlangen
According to Söder, a good comic is made up of history.
It's the same as with other things, for example films.

And: “Of course, some of them are also appropriate for their age.
Let's say, if someone wants to read Kissy Bear... I've already asked people, CSU MPs, who were fans of Kissy Bear.
That's at a slightly earlier stage, for example," Söder told

"On the other hand, if you later read Marvel or something like me or even ghost stories, then you have to be mentally stable," he joked.
