Jakara

Born into the pages of Zona X in 1996, Jakara is a creature of the Modern Age, emerging from the celebrated Italian publisher Sergio Bonelli Editore — a house with a long tradition of richly imagined genre storytelling. Created by Federico Memola and Beniamino Del Vecchio, this character inhabits a world populated by vivid figures like Elphin Magee, Brent Malone, Dagon Tarkas, Grayne Hornblower, and Selene Keidam, a cast that hints at the sweeping, adventurous scope Zona X was known for. With 17 catalogued appearances across a run that stretched through the late 1990s, Jakara may not be the most prolific name in the Bonelli universe, but for fans of that era's bold Italian comics storytelling, they're a rewarding discovery worth chasing down.
