Truls

Truls is a character from the Swedish alternative comics anthology MegaPyton, created by Simon Gärdenfors. Part of an offbeat, irreverent cast that includes Pappa Y-front and Susanna, Truls inhabits the quirky, countercultural world of late-1990s Scandinavian underground comics.

Truls made their comics debut in the pages of MegaPyton in 1999, born from the imagination of Simon Gärdenfors and published by Atlantic Förlags AB during the Modern Age of comics. A product of the late-'90s Swedish alternative scene, Truls shares those pages with a colorful cast including Pappa Y-front, Susanna, and Lisa Leavenworth, hinting at the offbeat, irreverent world MegaPyton was known for. With appearances spanning into the early 2000s, Truls is a compact but genuine piece of Scandinavian underground comics history — the kind of character that rewards the curious collector willing to dig beyond the mainstream.
