Tex Willer LU #205: Prokleta zemlja

In Cursed Land, lawyer Steve Lyman takes on a powerful businessman. Before long there is a price on his head, and the hunt is on across the open plains of Oklahoma. The money draws men who have no interest in why the lawyer was targeted. Lyman finds allies in Tex Willer and a farming family driven from their home by drought.

Tex has to protect Lyman from armed pursuers, but another danger is closing in, and a gun is no use against it. A tornado sweeps across the plains and changes the course of the chase. The family, already looking for somewhere they can make a living, must now find shelter from the storm in the middle of a fight they had no part in starting.

Mauro Boselli builds the western around a man paying the price for standing up to someone powerful. Alfonso Font uses the open landscape to show how exposed the group is to both the gunmen and the storm. This issue contains the first part of the story, which concludes in Tornado!
