Der Schwarze Hengst

François Corteggiani and Michel Faure brought the beloved novel The Black Stallion to life in this short-lived German comic series from Bastei Verlag, running eight issues from 1983 to 1987. Their lush, cinematic artwork and faithful storytelling captured the wild spirit of the Arabian stallion and his bond with young Alec Ramsay, distilling the classic adventure into a vivid, serialized form. Though brief, the series stands as a distinctive European homage to Walter Farley's timeless horse story, treasured by fans for its evocative visuals and heartfelt narrative.
