Dinkan
Bursting onto the Swedish comics scene in 1998, Dinkan is a creation of the inventive trio Ulf Granberg, Patrik Norrman, and Jonas Darnell, debuting in the very first issue of Herman Hedning — an Egmont publication that would become the character's primary stomping ground across a lively thirteen-year run. Sharing those anarchic pages with a wonderfully eccentric cast including Lilleman, Sharon Jävelberg, Fingal, Satan, and Derek Jävelberg, Dinkan inhabits a corner of Modern Age comics with genuine personality and a collector's pedigree to match — two of their appearances carry key-issue status, making early finds genuinely worth hunting down. For fans of Scandinavian comics with a sharp, offbeat sensibility, Dinkan is a name well worth discovering.
