Corto Maltese #12
This collected edition gathers Hugo Pratt's iconic Corto Maltese stories, following the enigmatic sailor-adventurer through early 20th-century global exploits. Published by Schreiber & Leser, it presents the series' poetic blend of historical fiction, exotic locales, and philosophical undertones in a single volume for German-speaking readers.
In "Mu, the Lost Continent," Corto Maltese ventures along the shores of Central America in a final, dreamlike quest for a fabled land, haunted by a sense of inevitability. The story’s quiet intensity is deepened by the return of key figures from his long journey, as if the past were converging on this last chapter. Written by Hugo Pratt and Dean Mullaney, with art by Pratt and Guido Fuga, and featuring Pratt’s distinctive inks, this issue stands as a poignant culmination of the saga. The cover, penciled and inked by Hugo Pratt, captures the mystery with a timeless, evocative touch.
