Who is Benny Jävelberg?

Benny Jävelberg is a character in the Swedish adult humor comic Herman Hedning, an irreverent Egmont series created by Ulf Granberg, Patrik Norrman, and Jonas Darnell. He inhabits a quirky Scandinavian world alongside an eccentric ensemble cast.

A creation of the Swedish comics trio Ulf Granberg, Patrik Norrman, and Jonas Darnell, Benny Jävelberg stepped onto the page in 1998 as part of the irreverent Egmont series Herman Hedning — a title that would keep him busy for over a decade. Across 58 catalogued appearances through 2011, he shares his world with a wonderfully eccentric cast including Kyrkoherden, Egg, Skaparen, Kommissarie Barskebäck, and Omar Kant, hinting at the richly populated and distinctly Scandinavian comic universe he inhabits. Two of those appearances carry key-issue status, making him a figure worth tracking down for collectors with an eye for Modern Age gems from outside the American mainstream. If you're exploring the vibrant world of Nordic comics, Benny Jävelberg is exactly the kind of character who rewards the curious fan willing to dig a little deeper.
