Zagor Original #47: Posljednji napad
Zagor frees Colonel Howard’s son and exposes a plot to start a war. Otto Kraus refuses to call off the Black Wolves, who prepare to attack Indigenous villages.
In Posljednji napad (The Last Assault), Zagor frees Colonel Howard’s son and learns who arranged the kidnapping. A trader hoped to start a war between settlers and Indigenous communities. He counted on the communities being blamed and the kidnapping being used to justify an armed expedition. Rescuing the boy exposes the scheme, but the mercenaries are already preparing to march on the villages.
Their commander, Otto Kraus, refuses to withdraw his men. The Black Wolves intend to attack even though the boy has been freed. Exposing the truth about the kidnapping can only take Zagor so far. The people in the villages now depend on him finding a way to stop Kraus before his men reach them.
Guido Nolitta separates two moments that would usually coincide in a kidnapping story: the boy is safe, but the danger to everyone else has become more immediate. Gallieno Ferri’s artwork carries the action from the search and rescue to the defence of the villages. The question at the heart of the final confrontation is whether Zagor can prevent a war someone else has already decided to start.
