I've acquired a number of Pantera Bionda comics. They are German reissues, and the first 19 volumes date back to around 1990. The name "Blonder Panther" is also used here. The subsequent volumes (20 through 80) use the Italian name and title again, are in German, are in black and white, and are often not stapled. It's stated that they were all published in March 1980. Is this correct?

As far as I can tell, 108 volumes of "Pantera Bionda" were published by Hethke between 1978 and 1981, each with an Italian cover and the German title in the lower right corner (and German text). This series also appeared in 10 collections, as "Sammler-Ausgabe" (Collector's Edition) with a German-language cover.

From 1991 to 1993, replicas of the first 19 volumes with German covers were published.

The comic strip Bionda was indeed in the magazine Actie , but that photo of actress Barbara Bates has no place here.

And would an administrator like to change the b in the series name Pantera bionda / Blonder Panther (German) to a B? My mistake, it's part of the character's name.

The album series is now called: Pantera Bionda / Blonder Panther

I cannot remove the photo in the series " Bionda the panther woman [Pantera Bionsa] ", only replace it.
Is there a preference for an image?

Didn't we do that anymore, the language behind the series name? It's still in the Handbook (16.12).

As a picture the first Italian edition?

Do I understand correctly that the items in the Pantera Bionda / Blonder Panther series are not a "First Edition of a reissue," but a "First Edition" in German?

And that the items in the Blonder Panther series (German) are a "First edition of a reissue"?

I meant to correct that, but it slipped my mind.

The first 19 volumes of the series were published in German translation in 1950 by Serienverlag Frank Märtins. They are not yet included in this catalog.

The first 19 volumes of Pantera Bionda / Blonder Panther are a reissue (but with an Italian cover), volumes 20 to 108 were not previously published in German and are therefore a first edition.
The Blonder Panther Sammler-Ausgabe (German) series is a collection of the same publication (10 or 11 episodes per book).

The 19 volumes of Blonder Panther (German) are the second reprint (now with the German covers).
