Zé Colmeia

A beloved figure in the Portuguese comics landscape of the late Bronze Age, Zé Colmeia made his catalog debut in Êxitos da TV #2 in 1979, brought to print by Bob Lubbers under the Portugal Press banner. With appearances also in Superaventuras Marvel, this character occupies a charming niche in the collector's world — a reminder of how vibrant and eclectic the Iberian comics market was during the early 1980s. Rare in the catalog with just three recorded appearances, Zé Colmeia is exactly the kind of discovery that makes digging through Portuguese Bronze Age titles so rewarding.
