Kaptein Miki

In the early 2000s, Norwegian publisher Thule Forlag resurrected the classic European adventure hero Kaptein Miki for a nine-issue series. Scripted by celebrated crime novelist Gunnar Staalesen, the series was visually defined by the dynamic, sweeping artwork of the legendary Italian studio EsseGesse, the original creators of the character. This run stands as a distinctive Norwegian tribute to a beloved Italian comic icon, blending Staalesen's literary sensibility with EsseGesse's signature pulp style.
