IDW 2016. Soft Cover. New. Hugo Pratt. When Corto Maltese arrives in the Middle East and Africa in 1918 the shifting sands and loyalties reveal colonial powers still battling for domination over each other and the indigenous people. The desert of Yemen controlled by the fading Ottoman Empire is the setting for "In the Name of Allah the Merciful and Compassionate" where Corto meets Cush the Danikil warrior with whom he establishes a close yet conflicted relationship. In "The Coup de Grace" the stubborn racism of an English commander of a small fort in British Somaliland leads to conflict with Cush and the Dervish army of Sayyid Mohamed whom the British call "The Mad Mullah." The action moves to Ethiopia amidst inter-tribal conflict in ". and of Other Romeos and Other Juliets" as Cush introduces Corto to the mysterious and powerful shaman Shamael who hears the voices of the dead and of devils. German East Africa is the background of "The Leopard-Men of the Rufiji" where Corto is engulfed in a dreamlike atmosphere that reveals how African justice operates outside the constraints of "white" law. Nominated for both the Eisner and Harvey Awards for Best Foreign Language Publication! 96 pages. Black & White illustrations. 9" x 11" 234mm x 292mm. IDW paperback

Euro Comics / IDW Publishing 2015. Soft Cover. New. Hugo Pratt. This book the first to be published of twelve volumes launches the definitive English-language edition of Hugo Pratt's masterpiece presented in the original oversized B&W format and with new translations made from Pratt's original Italian scripts. Corto Maltese set the standard for all adult adventure comics in Europe. By the mid-1970s Corto was the continent's most popular series and Hugo Pratt the world's leading graphic novelist. Hugo Pratt's peripatetic sailor was featured in a series of twenty-nine stories. The adventures of this modern Ulysses are set during the first thirty years of the 20th Century in such exotic locales as Pratt's native Venice the steppes of Manchuria the Caribbean islands the Danakil deserts the Amazon forests and the waves of the Pacific. Frank Miller calls Pratt "one of the true masters of comic art." Long before the term "graphic novel" entered the popular lexicon - ten years before Will Eisner's 'A Contract with God' - Hugo Pratt pioneered the long-form "drawn literature" story. EuroComics is working closely with Patrizia Zanotti Pratt's long-time collaborator to present the complete Corto Maltese in a series of twelve quality trade paperbacks in Pratt's original oversized B&W format. Corto Maltese: Under the Sign of Capricorn collects the first six inter-connected short stories Pratt created in France in the early 1970s: "The Secret of Tristan Bantam" "Rendez-vous in Bahia" "Sureshot Samba" "The Brazilian Eagle" "So Much for Gentlemen of Fortune" and "The Seagull's Fault." "Corto Maltese: The perfect introduction to this exhilarating character with full color flexicover. 140 pages. Black & White illustrations. 9" x 12" 236mm x 297mm.

Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung: Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung 2005. 2005. Softcover. 208 x 144 x 16 cm. Wenn es eine Geschichte gibt die den Namen Comic-Roman verdient dann �Die S�dseeballade� von Hugo Pratt. Damit begann der italienische Zeichner 1967 seine Abenteuerserie um den Seemann Corto Maltese. Pratt hat keine R�cksicht mehr genommen auf Formatbeschr�nkungen; er erz�hlte in dem Umfang den die Geschichte erforderte. Seine traumwandlerische �S�dseeballade� z�hlt deshalb zu den einflu�reichsten Comics aller Zeiten � und zu den besten sowieso. Wir pr�sentieren sie in einer eigens f�r uns erstellten neuen Farbfassung. <br/><br/>Wenn es eine Geschichte gibt die den Namen Comic-Roman verdient dann �Die S�dseeballade� von Hugo Pratt.
