About the series
In the early 1970s, Williams France published a 15-issue comic series centered on Calimero, the beloved little black chick with a half-eggshell on his head. This lighthearted, all-ages title brought the character's gentle adventures to the printed page, capturing the charm of the Italian-Japanese animated series that had made him a European icon. While no single creator is most associated with the comic, the series stands as a key piece of Calimero's transition from screen to sequential art, preserving his timeless appeal for a new generation of readers.
