Wally and Osborne - Minor Characters

Minor Characters

  • Penguinus Maximus, nicknamed "Max" by Wally, is a large, prehistoric penguin Wally and Osborne found frozen in the caves. Once unfrozen Max takes a liking to Wally, Wally adopts him. Max runs away and becomes the star of an Argentine television show named "Pinguino y los Niños de Nieve," known in English as "Pinguino & the Snow Kids." The show becomes a success and is dubbed into 27 languages from its original Spanish.
  • Unnamed poor penguin is seen in several strips and is probably the most popular minor character.
  • "Penguin Juvies" are small penguins (juveniles) who sell worthless items trying to scam Osborne. Osborne always seems to fall for the tricks used by the "Penguin Juvies".
  • "Thomas" is another young penguin, involved with the Penguin Juvies mentioned above. He is their hired muscle, and features in a strip where the Penguin Juvies are selling air with their sales pitch being "If you don't buy it, then Thomas here will squeeze it out of you." He is also featured in the "Jury Duty" storyline, where he is charged with theft of a candy bar.

    That is different. They are characters beyond
    Reality, composed thereof. They are

    They are men but artificial men.
