In the year of our lord 1679 a little boy named Karl Julius Axelsson was born in Sweden and when he was 17 he joined the army and was given the soldier name Kämpe [english: fighter]. A few years later the Great Northern War broke out. During the invasion of Russia the swedish army was all but destroyed in the Battle of Poltava (1709). Karl somehow survived the battle and with a stolen horse he fled the battlefield.

Back in the west Karl begins a new life as a adventurer. But soon he discovers that the world isn’t was it supposed to be. Hidden from the public eye there is a hidden war going on. A war between good and evil, between heaven and hell. Unless the powers of darkness are to prevail, good and righteous people must take up the fight. People like Karl Kämpe!

Karl Kämpe and his world is created by Jörgen Karlsson. To this day, six comic books have been published about the swedish adventurer and a book that is looking for a publisher has been written.

Much has been told and much more will be revealed. The story of Karl Kämpe is far from over.
