Maggi Mjói

Maggi Mjói is a character that appeared in both of the icelandic plays, Áfram Latibær and Glanni Glæpur í Latabæ. In the first play, he is portrayed as a sloppy, skinny, dispirited, and perhaps arrogant boy. But when he meets Íþróttaálfurinn (Sportacus), he discovers that he needs to eat good stuff to grow strong, healthy and happy. In the second play, Maggi appears again, but now as a strong, healthy, happy and friendly boy and now he has some "cool" mannerisms (that were not shown in the first play).

Trivia

- When Magnús Scheving decided to transform Latibær into a television series, the character, originally, was going to be used for the television series, but was scrapped for unknown reasons.
