Sami Saamaton

Sami Saamaton is a Copper/Modern Age creation who debuted in the pages of Myrkky in 1990, brought to life by the legendary Sergio Aragonés — a name synonymous with razor-sharp comedic cartooning. Published through Egmont Kustannus across Myrkky and Myrkky spesiaali into the mid-nineties, this character inhabits a wonderfully eclectic corner of Finnish comics, sharing pages with a memorable cast including Palle Runqvist, Kokonainen, and Pera Pervo. With 18 catalogued appearances and at least one collector-recognized key issue to their name, Sami Saamaton is a compact but genuinely intriguing find for anyone with a taste for international comics history and the distinctive wit Aragonés brings to everything he touches.
