He is classic of the type where his morals are personal and based more on freedom than any laws. I ended up getting a French translation of one of his books instead.Ĭorto is a rogue adventurer, a sailor of British and Gypsy descent. The stories of his most famous character, Corto Maltese, have been translated into English in the past by NBM, but they are now out of print and often fetching absurd prices. Pratt is highly regarded for his drawing style and his literate adventure tales. Italian artist Hugo Pratt created him in the late sixties and wrote and drew his stories (about 16 volumes as far as I can tell) through the late eighties (Pratt died in 1995). 126p., b+w (color edition also available), EUR 11.25 (about $13.50).Ĭorto Maltese is another famous European comics adventure, not as famous as Tintin or Asterix, but certainly a favorite of many.
Corto Maltese En Sibérie by Hugo Pratt (1975).
