Conejín

Conejín is a small rabbit character who appeared in the Spanish children's comic Pumby, published by Editorial Valenciana. Drawn by artist Palop, the character shared the anthology's pages with other animal companions like Becerrín and Monucho in lighthearted stories aimed at young readers.

A charming product of mid-century Spanish comics, Conejín first hopped onto the pages of Pumby #14 in 1955, brought to life by the artist Palop under the beloved Editorial Valenciana imprint — a publisher that gave generations of young Spanish readers some of their most treasured illustrated adventures. Active through the early 1960s, this little character built up an impressive 105 catalogued appearances in Pumby, sharing those colorful pages with a delightful cast including Becerrín, Monucho, Payasete, Fu-Chinín, and Plumita. With four key-issue appearances recognized by collectors, Conejín is a genuine find for anyone with a soft spot for the golden era of European children's comics — a small character with a surprisingly significant footprint.
