In 1969 the 22nd "Jerom" album "Het gouden hoofd" (English: "The Golden Head") was published by the "Standaard Uitgeverij".
Jerom (English: Jethro) was introduced in 1953 as a new character in the "Suske en Wiske" (English: "Spike and Suzy") album "De dolle musketiers" (English: "The Mad Musketeers"). In his first appearance as the strongest man in the Western Hemisphere, Willy Vandersteen portrayed him as an uncivilised loincloth figure.
