Chico Kolor #1: Chico Story
As the rain keeps falling, Chico tells Zagor about his life in Mexico, from shining shoes and fighting bulls to the military plot that forced him to flee to Texas.
In Chico Story, it has been raining in Darkwood for weeks. To pass the time, Zagor asks Chico what his life was like before they met. The story moves to Veracruz, Chico’s hometown, where Zagor’s future companion tries one job after another to make a living.
Chico shines shoes, plays music and even tries his hand at bullfighting. From the street to the bullring, each new job brings its own kind of trouble, and Chico remembers them all with the same seriousness, however funny they sound. When a military plot forces him to leave Mexico, he takes refuge in Texas. The series returns to this next chapter of his life in Amerikanac Chico.
Guido Nolitta and Gallieno Ferri give Chico the chance to tell his own story. Zagor’s question gets it started, but Chico’s voice carries the reader through the years before their friendship. From shining shoes to facing bulls, these episodes show how he got by when Zagor wasn’t around to get him out of trouble. First published in 1979, the adventure launched the Italian series of Chico specials.
