Oh, I do! Right now I only have scans for TEX comics, but I am mostly familiar with many of his creations and others related to the same period, like Zagor, Dylan Dog, Martin Mystére, Mister No, and others. Now, I am most familiar with Tex and Zagor, but I know a bit of most others.

I was thinking about making some Dylan Dogs profiles, while SamanPatou is working on some Dampyr stuff, I thought it might be cool to kinda unite and make a whole "Bonelli" verse page. We're in no hurry, obviously, but we could help each other out in the meantime

Sure thing, I'd love to. I'll create a page for Tex later and show to you guys to see if you approve.

ok. BTW, how knowledgeable are you on Dylan Dog?
EliminatorVenom
EliminatorVenom
Not that much. I've read some 10 issues-ish and a collection of Bonelli's works that featured him, Tex, Martin and some others. In fact, there was a crossover of Dylan Dog and Martin Mystére. The collection was called... Tex and the Adventurers, I think?

Hey, here's the profile. Whaddya think?

Also, for now there are only feats from Tex Gold series (And from #94), but I should be adding feats from his #401 to #600 comics soon.

Btw, not sure if any of you know portuguese, but if you do, I have two ongoing respect threads for Tex: One for the series as a whole, one focused on the character himself. I'm adding stuff very slowly as I have university and frankly I'm kind of... Idk the word, lacking motivation. In any case, I can link both to you, but again, in portuguese.

The profile looks very good, but i see you've encountered the same problem as me and Saman, the lack of english scans. i suggest you find a way to translate the scans to english.
TBH, you're lucky, you actually have scans, we are gonna have to take pictures of our paperback volumes in italian, which is an absolute pain in the ass

Yeah, it is a bit hard finding the comics online in english, and since the scans I had were taken mostly for my personal use, I didn't initially care much for finding them in english. I'll try to translate or find them in english.

You're better off just translating them, I doubt Tex was ever ported to America or England

Sorry if I jump in, the problem with the scans is that they don't straight up exist, since Bonelli has no market in the US whatsoever, and they didn't publish anything in the UK.
They tried to oublish Dampyr and Dylan Dog with IDW, but it failed badly.
After Italy, Brazil and east europe are the most flourishing markets for their comics, while Greece, Germany and some other countries publish something once in a while.

Things might change after the release of the movies, who knows.

Actually, readmangaonline had the first 100 or so issues of Dylan Dog translated in english, but they closed, soooo...
They did publish a bunch of Dylan Dog volumes in America, just look at this video
