Nuro

A Silver Age curiosity with genuine international flavor, Nuro made their debut in 1966 within the pages of Avontuur Classics, a publication from Classics/Williams that brought adventurous comics to eager readers. Over a run stretching into the late 1960s, Nuro carved out a modest but intriguing niche across 11 catalogued appearances, sharing those pages with a remarkably eclectic roster — from the atomic-age hero Doctor Solar and the jungle legend Tarzan to the beloved comedy duo Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy. That kind of company tells you everything about the wonderfully varied, anything-goes spirit of Avontuur Classics, and Nuro is a rewarding find for collectors with a taste for the offbeat corners of Silver Age publishing history.
