Leonardo
Debuting in 1987 courtesy of creators Kevin Eastman and Peter Laird, Leonardo is one of comics' most beloved Copper Age icons, a character whose presence has resonated across an impressive 35-year publishing span. Catalogued here through Atlantic Förlags AB editions, he shares his adventures with brothers Donatello, Michelangelo, and Raphael, alongside the formidable Splinter and the ever-menacing Shredder — company that tells you everything about the rich, kinetic world he inhabits. His appearances span Teenage Mutant Hero Turtles, Maxx, and even Usagi Yojimbo: Drakvrålskonspirationen, hinting at the remarkable cross-title reach this character has achieved. For collectors drawn to the scrappy, inventive energy of late-'80s comics and the characters who grew from cult favorites into genuine legends, Leonardo is absolutely worth seeking out.
