Milo Manara’s landmark collaboration with Dark Horse: A master of storytelling and of the human form, Manara has created some of the sexiest comics ever published.
6 volumes : chiefly illustrations (some color) ; 29 cm
Volume one: Indian Summer and other stories —
This is not the American frontier as it actually existed (fact-based though Hugo Pratt’s novel obviously is). This is, instead, a mythic West, a wonderland, different from the grit and grime of real-life history.
Volume two: El Gaucho and other stories —
Collects two of Manara’s major works: the historical saga El Gaucho, the second of Manara’s epic collaborations with his mentor Hugo Pratt, and Trial by Jury, a series of shorts never before published in the U.S.
Volume three: Trip to Tulum and other stories —
Milo Manara’s collaborations with legendary filmmaker Federico Fellini take center stage in this latest volume of The Manara Library!
Volume four: The adventures of Giuseppe Bergman —
Also featuring Bergman’s subsequent escapades though India, this volume is an essential addition to the Manara Library!
Volume five: Further adventures of Giuseppe Bergman —
Volume six: Escape from Piranesi and other stories.
Volume one: “This volume collects Indian Summer by Hugo Pratt and Milo Manara and The Paper Man by Milo Manara. Indian Summer began publication in serial format, in Corto Maltese#1 (Milano Libri), as “Tutto ricominciò con un’estate Indiana” © 1983 … The Paper Man was serialized in Pilot magazine (L’lsola Trovata) as “L’uomo dl corta” © 1981-1982″
Volume six: “In this final volume of The Manara Library, the Maestro’s unmatched draftsmanship and versatility are on full display with the sexy political space opera Escape from Piranesi, the provocative illustrated history of the human race, The Story of Humanity, Manara and Castelli’s classic tale of spiritual discovery, The Snowman, and Manara’s Reality Comics. Published in English for the first time.”
“Milo Manara’s art is fabulous (known for his erotic comics), European illustrative style in some ways reminiscent of Moebius, but more voluptuous and gratuitous. I also like the color schemes, simple and muted.”
