Tommy Torjäger

The long-running German sports comic Tommy Torjäger debuted in 1995 from Panini Deutschland, though its creative backbone comes from British talents Tom Tully (writer) and Mike White (artist). This single-issue series centers on the career of a star footballer, distilling the drama and thrill of the pitch into classic comic-strip storytelling. While brief in its run, it represents a notable European licensing of British comic craft for a soccer-mad audience.
