About the series
Martin Mystere, published by Zinco from 1982 to 1984, brought the globe-trotting Italian archaeologist and adventurer to American readers for a 17-issue run. The series followed the erudite title character and his sidekick, the Neanderthal Java, as they unraveled ancient mysteries and confronted the sinister Secret Brotherhood. While a relatively brief English-language chapter, this Zinco edition introduced U.S. audiences to a beloved European hero, showcasing the blend of history, science fiction, and pulp adventure that defined the character.
