Zagor - The Scepter of Tin Hinan
Just finished reading "Zagor - The Scepter of Tin Hinan" published by Epicenter Comics.
"The Scepter of Tin Hinan" marks the third appearance of Andrew Cain in the ever continuing saga of Zagor, which is only fitting since it is one of the longest Zagor epics published to date.
Centuries ago, as Atlantis was dying, Tin Hinan, it's last queen, dismantled the four pieces of the Key to Knowledge and set them forth in the world, hoping against hope that they would never be reassembled to do harm. One of the pieces would ultimately fall into the possession of Princess Marada of the Kel-Adrar - Cain's wife - who has been taken prisoner by Zagor's old enemy Professor Richter who escaped the mountain of ice that he had been buried under and is seeking revenge by teaming up with a necromancer to kill Zagor by unleashing an ancient and unworldly creature of dust against him.
What makes "The Scepter of Tin Hinan" an integral part of the Zagor mythos is that in this cycle, Zagor's friend, Dexter Green gives into the temptation of the Key to Knowledge and leaves Zagor to drown in quicksand.
Mauro Boselli is the writer with Michele Rubini taking on the artist duties.
Zagor reminds me of the old Warren Comics featuring Vamperilla, The Rook, Hunter and other classic Warren heros with the story and art styles.
Highly Recommended!
Ten Stars!
