Why not ? A Polish friend told me about a very famous character, a detective by a Polish writer. i guess this stuff must have cropped all over the worldŠ In Germany, there were LOTS and LOTS of pulp magazine, including characters like Perry Rhodan, Jerry Cotton, Komissar X, etcŠ Some even had movies adaptations ! Of course, the problem is that we can't know everything that existed. Though most encyclopedias, with typical Western-world ethnocentrism, only includes American and European fictionŠ Though "Encyclopedia" in itself entails a global vision. It would be like writing a book about philosophy and omitting Confucius and the Taoist because they are ChineseŠ
