Bonzer Comics

Published by Frank Johnson Publications, Bonzer Comics is a single-issue comic from 1943, written and illustrated entirely by the singular talent Emile Mercier. This slim but distinctive volume stands as a complete, self-contained snapshot of wartime Australian comics, offering a unique glimpse into Mercier’s irreverent humor and bold cartooning style. Its brevity and creator-driven focus make it a notable, if fleeting, artifact in the history of local comic publishing.
