Corto Maltese I stenbukkens tegn

Under the sign of Capricorn, the first chapter of Hugo Pratt's globe-trotting saga introduces the enigmatic Corto Maltese, a romantic sailor adrift in the early 20th century's turbulent seas. Originally published in Norwegian by Cappelen in 1990, this single-issue volume collates Pratt's masterful, ink-washed storytelling, with Jón Sveinbjørn Jónsson contributing to the writing. It marks the beginning of a beloved series that redefined the adventure comic as a vehicle for historical depth and poetic melancholy.
