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.

YMMV item, and you fail to see that this is all for joke. Grinding up a live boy in real life would not be \"squicky\", but horrible (and murder).

Not so. The miller and the farmer do not try to cover up the killing of Max and Moritz. The ending makes clear that everyone in the town knows what happened and agrees fully with the boys\' punishment (\"not a sign of grief was heard\"). This is just a grotesquely exaggerated comeuppance and supposed to be comical. It\'s not crime fiction.
