Lemminki

In this Finnish folkloric fantasy from Fantacore, writer-artist Kristian Huitula reimagines the legendary hero Lemminki from the Kalevala as a gritty, modern-day warrior navigating a world where ancient magic and contemporary life collide. Since its 2020 debut, the series has offered a moody, visually striking take on Finnish mythology across two issues, with Huitula’s singular creative vision driving both the script and the art. It stands as a distinctive, creator-owned exploration of national epic material, bringing a lesser-known mythological figure to a new audience.
