Grandes Viajes #130

"El Capitán Cook" in Grandes Viajes #130 (1973) tells the story of young James Cook, abandoned as a boy and forced to flee after mistreatment in a shop, only to find his path at sea in Hull, where he joins a coal ship and rises through the ranks to join the Royal Navy. From the siege of Quebec to charting the coasts of Newfoundland, Cook’s journey culminates in his command of the scientific expedition to Tahiti aboard the Endeavour—leading to two more voyages that would shape history. The story, lettered by composición tipográfica, captures the early life of one of history’s most famous explorers in a grounded, chronological narrative.
