Jeremiah Steiner

Born in the pages of Pif Gadget in 1970, Jeremiah Steiner is a Silver Age creation of Louis Cance who has quietly endured across nearly five decades of European comics under the Casterman banner. With just 14 catalogued appearances spread across Corto Maltese, Pif Gadget, and Corto, he's a figure whose presence is selective and meaningful rather than ubiquitous — the kind of character serious collectors learn to notice. He moves through stories alongside a remarkable cast including Corto Maltese, Bouche Dorée, and Soledad Lokäarth, which speaks to the rich, adventurous world he inhabits, and at least one of his appearances carries genuine key-issue significance worth tracking down.
