Corto Maltese #12
This volume collects the 2016–2018 story arc 'Jeunesse' (Youth) from the Corto Maltese series, published by Casterman. It focuses on the early adventures of the iconic sailor, exploring his formative years and the events that shaped his character. The collection is part of the modern revival of Hugo Pratt's classic character, with new stories by a different creative team.
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.
