Dylan Dog #257
In "Il custode," Dylan Dog is drawn into a chilling mystery in the isolated Maggwann valley, where a centuries-old sarcophagus awakens a giant in 18th-century garb—only to unleash a killing spree echoing the local legend of the Devil of the Hills. With the help of the doctor Justine Lumley and stationmaster Hugh Beacham, Dylan races to uncover the truth behind the creature’s immortality and find the ancient dagger buried with it before more lives are lost. Written by Giancarlo Marzano and illustrated by Luigi Piccatto, with a striking cover by Angelo Stano, this 2008 issue blends gothic dread and supernatural suspense in classic Dylan Dog fashion.

Nella valle isolata di Maggwann riemerge un sarcofago con il corpo di un gigante in abiti settecenteschi. Tornato in vita scatena nuovi omicidi, identici a quelli della leggenda locale del Diavolo delle colline. Chiamato a indagare, Dylan Dog scopre che la creatura è praticamente immortale e che solo un antico pugnale rinvenuto nella tomba potrebbe fermarla. Inizia così una corsa contro il tempo per salvare le prossime vittime: la dottoressa Justine Lumley e il capostazione Hugh Beacham.
