Dylan Dog maxi #23: Poruke jednoga neznanca / Noć zvijezda padalica / Novi žar
The maxi edition of Dylan Dog #23 contains three stories: Messages from a Stranger, Night of the Shooting Stars and New Flame, by Paolo Altieri, Samuel Marolla and Tiziano Sclavi, with illustrations by Luigi Copello, Massimo Dall’Oglio and Giampiero Caser
In Messages from a Stranger, Dylan Dog, a nightmare investigator, is faced with a mysterious case where an unknown sender leaves messages that predict crimes. Dylan and Groucho investigate a series of murders, discovering a connection to an obscure cult. The plot, filled with suspense and supernatural elements, takes Dylan to the dark corners of London, where he faces moral dilemmas and tries to prevent further tragedies. Copello's art emphasizes the eerie atmosphere.
The Night of the Shooting Stars brings a nostalgic story in which Dylan, together with Francesco Dellamorte from The Black Horror, observes the stars during the night of St. Lawrence. Conversations about life and death are interrupted by the appearance of a mysterious entity. The story, more introspective than action, explores existential themes with subtle horror. Dall'Oglio's art creates a melancholic atmosphere, with an emphasis on the characters.
A new zeal returns Dylan to classic horror. He faces a cult that resurrects the dead, led by a charismatic leader. Dylan and Bloch join forces to stop a ritual that threatens London. Casertan's dynamic art enhances the tension and supernatural elements.
This edition blends a variety of tones – from mystery and introspection to classic horror – with strong characterization and atmosphere, typical of Dylan's world.
