Fakkelen og Jernmannen

A short-lived but notable Norwegian comic series from 1968, Fakkelen og Jernmannen collected reprints of classic Marvel adventures starring the Human Torch and Iron Man. With stories written by Stan Lee and Larry Lieber and artwork by Jack Kirby and Dick Ayers, the four-issue run offered Norwegian readers a compact, early taste of the Marvel Universe. Published by a trio of Norwegian companies—Serieforlaget, Se-Bladene, and Stabenfeldt—it stands as a curious piece of international comics history, bridging American superheroes with a Scandinavian audience.
