About the series
In the late 1970s, Finnish publisher Otava brought the beloved creations of Belgian cartoonist Peyo to a new audience with this six-issue series. Johannes ja Pirkale collects the classic adventures of the spirited medieval page and his loyal dwarf companion, showcasing Peyo's signature warm, whimsical art and clever storytelling. Though a short run, it stands as a key entry in the global spread of Peyo's work beyond his native Franco-Belgian comics.
