Zagor - Terror From The Sea

Just finished reading "Zagor - Terror From The Sea" by Mauro Boselli and Stefano Andreucci released by Epicenter Comics.
Zagor is an Italian comic book created by editor and writer Sergio Bonelli, the pseudonym for Guido Nolitta, and artist Gallieno Ferri. Zagor was first published In Italy by Sergio Bonelli Editore in 1961.
Epiccenter Comics has been publishing Zagor and Tex graphic novels since 2015.
"Terror From The Sea" originally published from September 1997-to -November 1977 over in Italy.
Zagor's real name is Patrick Wilding, the son of Mike and Betty - who were murdered in front of his eyes. He is a western-Tarzanesque character living in a fictional forest named Darkwood, located in Pennsylvania, north eastern United States.
His name Zagor comes from his Indian name "Za-Gor Te-Nay", whose fictional meaning is "The Spirit with the Hatchet". Though the writers do not mention exact dates, Zagor is supposed to be active during the first half of the 19th century, or around 1825–1830. Zagor fights to maintain peace all over his territory, protecting the Indian tribes and hunting down criminals regardless of their skin color.
Felipe Cayetano Lopez Martinez y Gonzales, "Chico," is Zagor's loyal companion and a comic relief throughout the series. There are elements of Zagor's and Chico's relationship that mirrors the relationship between Xena and Gabrielle.
"Terror From The Sea" picks up a short while after the events chronicled in "Voodoo Vendetta."
Cain, and a bit of his history and back ground is introduced in the intro and then the action goes to Darkwood where Chico receives a dream message from their friend Ramath, who left the message written in the sand to help convince Zagor that he actually talked to Chico.
Ramath requested their help because Port Whale is in danger and there is an ancient evil - Dagon - that is threatening all that lives.
One of the aspects that makes Zagor so popular in comic circles is that his adventures cut across all genres.
Walking to Port Whale, Zagor and Chico cross paths with Cain and in the port city, horrors are soon revealed and if Zagor, Chico, Cain, and their friends are to survive.
