Maggot

A rare slice of Silver Age newspaper comics history, Maggot debuted in 1970 within the pages of the Calgary Herald's comic offerings, making this character a genuinely distinctive piece of Canadian comics culture. With only a handful of catalog appearances spread across The Calgary Herald Comic Book and Valiant, Maggot is the kind of obscure find that serious collectors love to unearth — sharing pages with the likes of Buck Rogers and the Flagston family from Hi and Lois. The company this character keeps speaks to an era when newspaper strip reprints and original material mingled freely in regional publications, creating wonderfully eclectic reading experiences. A true rarity for anyone who loves digging beyond the mainstream.
