“La tour de babel”

In "La tour de babel," Martin Mystère stumbles upon a mysterious book that recounts three enigmas—yet the real mystery lies in the book itself. Written by Alfredo Castelli and illustrated by Claudio Villa, this 1985 issue from Editions Lug presents a self-referential puzzle: the text perfectly reproduces notes from a future publication of Mystère’s own work, blurring the line between past and future. The cover by Claudio Villa captures the book’s eerie, recursive essence.
