Lillen

Lillen made her comics debut in 1964, stepping onto the page in the very first issue of Lilla Fridolf [julalbum] — a Silver Age arrival crafted by Torsten Bjarre who has since kept good company with beloved characters like Lilla Fridolf, Selma Olsson, and the Palm family across six decades of festive storytelling. Published under the Semic banner, Lillen's presence has endured remarkably from the swinging sixties all the way to 2024, a quiet testament to the lasting affection readers have for this corner of Scandinavian comics. With 36 catalogued appearances concentrated in the julalbum holiday tradition, she's a charming piece of comics history well worth seeking out for anyone with a passion for the rich, often-overlooked world of Nordic comic publishing.
