Zagor – Kolor #5: Drevno prokletstvo
At Aline’s farm, Zagor and Chico encounter a threat that leads back to the events that drove Dr Metrevelic and his family from the Balkans.
Dr Metrevelic invites Zagor and Chico to visit the new farm of his daughter Aline and her husband. There, a danger resurfaces that can be traced back to the events that drove the doctor from the Balkans to the New World. Aline was a child when they left. Now, as her twenty-seventh birthday approaches, she finds herself at the centre of a threat whose origins she does not know.
In Drevno prokletstvo (The Ancient Curse), Jacopo Rauch takes readers back to the time when Metrevelic met Ivana, his future wife and Aline’s mother. Scenes from their past explain why the doctor takes the trouble at the farm so seriously. To make sense of the danger, Zagor has to discover what the family hoped to leave behind. The story brings Gothic horror and a supernatural threat to the American frontier.
The episode also marks a moment in the series’ history: it contains the last Zagor pages drawn by Gallieno Ferri, the character’s original artist and co-creator. Gianni Sedioli and Marco Verni completed the artwork Ferri left unfinished.
