Althos

Althos made their debut in the pages of Pumby #193 in 1961, born from the imagination of creator Palop and launched into the vibrant world of Editorial Valenciana's beloved Spanish comics during the Silver Age. Over a run stretching into the mid-1960s, Althos carved out a place across 48 catalogued appearances in Pumby — that wonderfully charming anthology that also gave readers characters like Pumby, El Lobo, Corthos, Tragamis, and Caperucita Encarnada. With one key issue already flagged by collectors, Althos is a rewarding find for anyone drawn to the rich, distinctive tradition of mid-century Spanish comics that flourished well beyond the Anglo-American mainstream.
