Skorpio #5
In "Jesse James parte prima: I guerriglieri," Yakushi—once a scientist working with the Germans on heavy water—awakens in a frozen medieval wilderness, utterly unharmed by the biting cold or a crossbow arrow that strikes him. The stark contrast between his modern past and this ancient, snow-laden realm sets the stage for a journey into mystery, with Rodolfo Torti handling both pencils and inks for the interior art, and José Ortiz bringing the cover to life with his distinctive style.
In "Il paradiso di Angus McCoy," a quiet, perpetually apologetic man finds himself unexpectedly drawn into a moment of connection when a young woman asks for directions during an evening stroll. Though he’s long been overlooked—even when his wife dismisses his cherished dog—this simple exchange hints at a world beyond his usual solitude.
In "null," Simon arrives to photograph one of the world’s wealthiest men, only to find him dead in his study—no warning, no witnesses, just silence and a mystery that begins the moment the camera shutter clicks. The stark contrast between opulence and sudden stillness sets a tense, unflinching tone, all rendered in stark, typeset letters that echo the story’s cold precision.
In the dusty frontier of 1978’s Skorpio #5, Timber and Duncan cross paths with a hardened army major driven by a personal vendetta—tracking an elusive Indian chief and his men through the wild, unforgiving landscape. The trail leads deeper into unknown territory, where loyalty, justice, and the weight of the past collide.
In the silent void between worlds, an American astronaut races toward a hidden lunar base, unaware that a Russian capsule—carrying a survivor driven to desperate extremes—has been launched alongside him. Trapped in the dark with a dead companion and a fractured mission, the lone Russian sends a final, urgent message through the static, hoping to reach the man he can’t see but must trust.
In the frozen wilds of medieval Northern Europe, Yakushi stirs from a long silence, his mind adrift between eras. Once a scientist tied to a dark collaboration, he now walks untouched by cold or wound—his body a mystery even to himself.
