Jeroentje
Jeroentje is a child character from the beloved Dutch family comic strip Jan, Jans en de kinderen, created by Jan Kruis and published by VNU Tijdschriften, first appearing in 1972. The strip humorously depicts everyday life in a large, lively Dutch family.
Few characters can claim over five decades of continuous comic life, but Jeroentje β a fixture of the beloved Dutch family strip Jan, Jans en de kinderen since 1972 β has done exactly that. Created by Jan Kruis and debuting in the Bronze Age, this enduring figure has shared countless pages alongside Jan Tromp, Jans Tromp, Karlijn Tromp, Lotje, and the iconic red cat, De rode kater, across hundreds of issues in Libelle and the series' own albums. With 301 catalogued appearances stretching from 1972 all the way to 2026 and at least one collector-recognized key issue to their name, Jeroentje is woven into the fabric of Dutch comics culture in a way that few characters from any era can match β a warm, familiar presence that has grown up alongside generations of readers.
