Nils Roger Schaeder, born August 11, 1950, was the founder of the comic book publishing house Formatic Press and the Swedish comic book SeriePressen Comic Magazine, publishing eleven issues 1993-1994.

In 1993, SeriePressen was launched by Roger Schaeder, who revived both the comic book title Seriepressen and the publisher name Formatic Press from previous comic book publishing efforts in Sweden. The former Serie-Pressen was published by Saxon & Lindströms publishing house 1971–1972.

The former publisher Formatic Press established itself with the comic book SerieNytt in 1957, and in 1962–1964 published a number of new comic books in extra large format, with titles such as Allan Kämpe (a Swedish Flash Gordon copy), Blixt Gordon (Flash Gordon), Ben Bolt (Big Ben Bolt), Buzz Cooper (Buz Sawyer), Peter Falk (Rip Kirby) and Mandrake (Mandrake the Magician).

The "New" SeriePressen in the 90’s contained both old and new humor comic strips, such as Adamson (Silent Sam, or Adamson’s Adventures), Familjen Flax (Hi and Lois), JP Krax (Shoe), Sam's serie (Sam’s Strip), Baby Blues, Barockt! (SNAFU! or Beattie Blvd.), Adam, Sveryda, Krazy Kat, Haspen är lös (Off the Leash) and Jan Romare's comic strips from the Swedish newspaper Dagens Nyheter - Pyton and Himlens änglar - but also quite a few comic strips, such as Buz Sawyer, made guest appearances.

The comic book title SeriePressen ceased in early 1994 after eleven monthly issues, ten issues in 1993 and one in 1994. The publisher also produced SeriePressen Minialbum, which was a paperback pocket book released in 1994 entirely dedicated to the comic panel Barockt by Bruce Beattie.

Today Schaeder is the publisher of the blog website Rogers Seriemagasin.
