Achille Talon

Achille Talon, the pompous and long-winded French intellectual, made a brief foray into Spanish-language publishing with this two-issue series from Meribérica in 1982. While the character's main adventures were created by Greg for Pilote magazine, this short run brought his signature brand of verbose comedy to a new audience. It stands as a curious, geographically distinct footnote in the long history of a beloved European comic icon.
