Blek LU #35: Putovanje u tamu / Kožnata maska
Forced labour, greed and a mysterious prisoner connect two Blek adventures. Putovanje u tamu and The Leather Mask feature dangerous missions in which helping the vulnerable leads towards enemy traps.
In Putovanje u tamu, captive patriots dig a British tunnel while their commander secretly pursues silver. In The Leather Mask, Blek’s attempt to rescue a mysterious prisoner leads into a trap.
Captivity and concealed motives connect these adventures, giving the struggle against British rule a personal dimension. Military operations can conceal private ambitions, while a willingness to help becomes a vulnerability the enemy can exploit. Blek faces dangers that demand more than physical strength.
The title story explores the relationship between power and greed; its companion builds suspense around an unknown identity. Tunnel and mask serve as related adventure motifs, each concealing something the hero must understand.
Written by Franco Frescura and drawn by Carlo Cedroni, the volume represents the creators who continued developing Blek’s world after the original EsseGesse trio. Readers of the Yugoslav editions may recognise the material from Prokleto srebro and Crna magija. Together, the stories combine wartime adventure, mystery and resistance to oppression, with an emphasis on freedom and solidarity with people in danger.
