THE DUTCH TEX WILLER HOMEPAGE
TEX WILLER IN HOLLAND latest update March 21st
2024 Between 1971
and 1981 a total of 128 books were published in the Netherlands and in
Flandres in the Tex Willer Classics series. A Dutch homepage,
dedicated to this series and offering as much information as possible, did
not yet exist. The aim of this first and only Dutch Tex Willer Homepage
is to gather as much information about Tex Willer as possible - and not only
about the Dutch series, also about the many other foreign series that have
been (or are still being) published. And last but not least this site should
be a place where Tex Willer enthusiasts from all over the world can meet,
exchange information and exchange books...

(update) Breaking news: new Tex editions in the Netherlands end of 2013! Tex Willer issue 129 published
after 25 years (110 copies only!) my own Tex Willer book collection
(update) The Tex Willer comics find their origin in Italy, in
1948. It has been published there ever since and gradually got translated in
many other languages. Other countries that still publish Tex Willer comics on
a regular basis are Finland, Norway and Brasil. Gathering
information about the Dutch Tex Willer series is not so easy. The comics have
not been published over 20 years now and not much has been written in comic
magazines. However, after more 20 years of silence, in January 2003 a brand
new Tex Willer album was published in Holland (and Belgium)! It was the first
issue of a series consisting of four books in total, named "The four
killers" or "De vier moordenaars" in Dutch. This series cannot
be compared with the old books from the 1979s. These new books are in full
colour and in "A4" format - the only similarity is the cowboy with
his yellow shirt and blue jeans... This site is
always under construction, especially the lay-out
should be smoothened. But for the time being it is more important to gather
information about Tex Willer and to publish this on the web. Updates
will be uploaded on a regular basis, so please bookmark www.texwiller.nl with your favourites and
visit the site every now and then. At this moment
only this introduction page has been translated into English. Please give me
some time and more pages of this website will be translated. However, I trust
that the illustrations and cover scans will be interested to any of you. Although the
Dutch Tex Willer comic books are the most important subjects for this
homepage, more and more information about other countries has been gathered
over the years. The series in Finland, Norway, Germany and the UK were
identical to the Dutch books. There are also close ties with Danish and
Swedish series. Any help from
anybody will be much appreciated! If you have more information about Tex
Willer publications in your own country, please drop me a line at: erik (at) texwiller (dot) nl - sorry for this
"encrypted" e-mail address but I am received lots of spam through
my website... Anyway, I am constantly searching for new facts and I am always
happy to exchange a few Tex Willer books... Thanks, Erik
