Carpe Diem was launched in c. 2007, winning "the Pondus Award, Sweden’s biggest comic prize, in 2008. Since that time the strip has been distributed throughout Scandinavia."[3]
Carpe Diem began being syndicated by King Features in May 2015, with it landing in 80 newspapers, an impressive debut figure given the shrinkage in the newspaper industry.[2]
