Perfessor

A quirky Bronze Age creation from the pages of The Calgary Herald Comic Book, Perfessor made their debut in 1979 courtesy of cartoonist Bill Hinds, finding a home in one of comics' more distinctive regional publications. With only a handful of catalog appearances across 1979–1980, this is a rare and genuinely collectible slice of Canadian newspaper comics history. Sharing pages with the likes of Buck Rogers, Flo Capp, and Henry, Perfessor kept some wonderfully eclectic company in a publication that mixed homegrown characters with beloved strip classics. For collectors with a taste for the offbeat and the local, Perfessor is exactly the kind of hidden gem that makes digging through Bronze Age back issues so rewarding.
