I think it's a Serbian exclamation, possibly archaic, literally it's "hundred thunderbolts!" but in American slang I think "You don't say!" or "What the heck!"

I think it's a Serbian exclamation, possibly archaic, literally it's "hundred thunderbolts!" but in American slang I think "You don't say!" or "What the heck!" are the closest in meaning for me. The Serbian translation of Marty Mystere used it liberally to the point that if you used it in speech people would get you were making a comicbook reference.

Ah, for Martin Mystère it would have likely been his trademark Diavoli dell'inferno! in Italian ("hell's devils!"). Most characters created in Italy by Sergio Bonelli Editore (Mystère, Dylan Dog, Tex, etc) have a typical exclamation like that. I'm gonna start using that serbian version for fun with Italian friends =D
