The TeXnian Comedy (DTK) is the membership magazine of the German-speaking user association TeX e. V. (DANTE).

The journal contains notices from within the association and conference reports as well as scientific and practical articles on all aspects of the TeX typesetting system and the accompanying software (especially LaTeX , but also ConTeXt , LuaTeX , XeTeX or BibTeX / Biber) as well as reviews of new literature. The authors are usually DANTE association members, developers or users.

The magazine has existed since the association was founded in 1989. It appears four times a year with a circulation of 2,400 copies and is distributed free of charge to all DANTE members. Non-members can reorder individual issues. Once a year, the TeX Collection with the current TeX distribution TeXLive and a copy of the TeX repository CTAN are included on DVD.

The name of the magazine is an allusion to the Divine Comedy by the Italian poet and philosopher Dante Alighieri and the name of the editor.
