Elvis (comic)

Elvis (comic)

Elvis is a Swedish comic strip created in 2000 by Tony Cronstam for the free daily newspaper "Metro", as well as other more local newspapers.

Elvis Tonysson, the main character of the comic is a middle-aged man portrayed as a tortoise, who is according to Cronstam loosely based on himself, like most of the recurring characters are based on friends and family.

The main plot of the strip is according to Cronstam based on day-to-day annoyances encountered in real life. The plot of the strips published in the daily newspaper usually don't stretch over multiple strips, making the strip easy to understand even for non-daily readers, which is the case with most daily newspaper strips. There are also several comic books released, some of which feature a main plot.

Nowadays, Tony's wife Maria Cronstam is a main part in the development of the comic.
