Description:
This comic is Issue #1 from the Teks series published in Turkey by Aksoy Yayınları in 2000. The series consisted of a total of thirteen issues and was released on a monthly basis. Printed in Turkish and in black and white, the series represents another Turkish edition of the classic Italian Western comic Tex.
Tex is a classic Italian Western comic series created by writer Gianluigi Bonelli and artist Aurelio Galleppini, also known as Galep. First introduced in Italy in 1948, the character quickly became one of the most popular and longest-running Western comic heroes in Europe. The series combines action, adventure, and frontier justice within the setting of the American Old West.
The comic takes its name from its main character Tex Willer, a fearless Texas Ranger known for his strong sense of justice and uncompromising personality. Tex operates across the American frontier fighting criminals, bandits, corrupt officials, and other threats. In addition to being a ranger, Tex is also the chief of the Navajo Nation in the stories, where he is known among the Native Americans as “Night Eagle.” As a character, Tex is portrayed as someone who strongly opposes discrimination and prejudice, and while he respects justice, he is not afraid to bend rules or resort to force when necessary to defend the innocent.
This issue includes the story titled “Silahların Kanunu,” adapted from the original Italian story “La Legge Della Colt.” Like many Turkish editions of Tex comics, the publication was printed in black and white, reflecting common production practices used to keep printing costs lower while still bringing the classic Western adventures to local readers.
For collectors, the Aksoy Yayınları Teks series represents a relatively modern Turkish edition of the legendary character. With its monthly release schedule and limited thirteen-issue run, it forms part of the long history of Tex publications that maintained the character’s popularity among Turkish comic readers for decades.
