Marco Polo Sammelband

Published by Bastei Verlag from 1976 to 1978, Marco Polo Sammelband collected ten issues of historical adventure comics centered on the Venetian explorer’s legendary travels. The series is notable for its digest-sized anthology format, bundling complete stories from earlier Bastei titles into a budget-friendly package aimed at younger readers. Though short-lived, it preserved and repackaged the publisher’s energetic, globe-trotting tales for a new audience.
