Tex Willer

Few characters in comics can claim a publishing run stretching across more than five decades, but Tex Willer is exactly that kind of enduring figure — a Bronze Age stalwart whose 836 catalogued appearances speak to a devoted readership that simply never let go. Debuting in 1972 under the Hjemmet / Egmont banner, this western hero has made his home across Tex Willer and Maxi Tex, sharing his adventures with the likes of Kit Carson, Kit Willer, and Tiger Jack. With two key collector issues anchoring his legacy, Tex Willer is the rare comics presence that rewards both the longtime devotee and the curious newcomer willing to saddle up for the ride.
