Petteri Tikkanen, born in 1975 in Iisalmi, is a comics artist. His most well-known comic characters are Kanerva and Eero. Tikkanen occasionally puts on tights and appears as a superhero wrestler named Black Peider. Petteri also creates comics about his adventures.

The Kanerva ja cosplay (Kanerva and Cosplay) comic book focuses on play and its various expressions. The work is a tribute to everyone who, as children, teenagers, or even somewhat older, used different costumes to express themselves. Where is the line between play and reality? In the Kanerva and Eero adventures, nothing is impossible. That’s why they are genuinely funny.
