About the series
Calimero, a 12-issue series from Thorpe & Porter published in 1973–1974, adapts the beloved Italian-Japanese cartoon about a small, black-feathered chick with a half-eggshell on his head. The comic follows Calimero's gentle, often misunderstood adventures as he navigates a world of bigger animals, always learning that being different is a strength. While not a landmark of the medium, this short-lived series preserves a charming slice of 1970s licensed comics history for fans of the character.
