Rat-Man Speciale Quark Hotel '98 #[nn]

In "Il Collezionista," Rat-Man is captured by a mysterious figure who collects comic characters and replaces them with altered copies—each subtly changed, each one a puzzle. Written and illustrated by Leo Ortolani in his signature graffiti style, this 1998 special issue delivers a surreal, self-referential twist on the medium itself, with a cover by Ortolani that mirrors the story’s themes of identity and imitation.
