Jussi

A compact but intriguing presence from the mid-1990s Finnish comics scene, Jussi made their debut in Myrkky #7 in 1996 — a publication from Egmont Kustannus that gathered an eclectic cast of characters under one roof. Sharing pages with the likes of Päätoimittaja, Firkin, Palle Runqvist, Harri Hemo, and Rhesus Miinus, Jussi inhabits a wonderfully offbeat corner of Copper/Modern Age comics with a distinctly Nordic flavor. Their appearances stretch across both Myrkky and its companion title Myrkky spesiaali, making this a character for the dedicated collector with an eye for the more adventurous edges of European comics publishing.
