Pytonella

Emerging from the irreverent pages of Swedish publisher Atlantic Förlags AB in 1992, Pytonella is a Copper/Modern Age creation of Christer Follin, Tommy Dick, and their collaborators — born into the gleefully anarchic world of MegaPyton and Pyton, publications with a distinctly Nordic sense of comic mischief. She keeps wonderfully eccentric company, sharing pages with characters like Pyrre Pyton, Rhesus Minus, and the delightfully named Pervo-Kris, which tells you everything you need to know about the irreverent spirit of her universe. Rare in the catalog with only three recorded appearances across a run that stretched through the mid-to-late '90s, Pytonella is exactly the kind of offbeat discovery that makes digging through international comics such a rewarding adventure.
