Tex Willer LU #206: Tornado

Tornado concludes the adventure begun in Cursed Land. A storm sweeps across the Oklahoma plains and separates Tex Willer from his companions. Among them are Steve Lyman, a lawyer with a price on his head after standing up to a powerful businessman, and a farming family driven from home by drought. Already caught up in a manhunt, they now have to find their bearings after the tornado.

Jim Bennett and his gunmen are still on Lyman’s trail. The bounty draws others as well, and Tex encounters fresh ambushes along the way. Some opponents face him openly; others conceal their intentions. With the group scattered, Tex must find and protect Lyman before the men hoping to collect the bounty reach him.

Mauro Boselli makes the storm the turning point of the chase: after it strikes, Tex can no longer count on his companions being together. Alfonso Font draws a wide, open landscape where shelter is hard to find and there is no telling who will turn up once the storm has passed.
