Göran Raptus

Göran Raptus is a supporting character from the Swedish adult humor comic Herman Hedning, part of its irreverent, offbeat cast that includes figures like Lilleman, Bacon, and the Jävelberg family in absurdist Scandinavian comedy situations.

Emerging from the pages of Egmont's Herman Hedning in 1998, Göran Raptus is a Modern Age creation born from the sharp collaborative vision of Ulf Granberg, Patrik Norrman, and Jonas Darnell. With 12 catalogued appearances and two collector-significant key issues to their name, this character carved out a memorable niche in the irreverent Scandinavian comics scene of the late '90s. Göran Raptus shares the page with a wonderfully offbeat cast — Lilleman, Bacon, Sharon Jävelberg, Derek Jävelberg, and the titular Herman himself — making for lively, character-rich company. A compact but noteworthy presence in a beloved cult series, Göran Raptus is exactly the kind of discovery that reminds collectors why digging into European comics is always worth the effort.
