Ticonderoga is probably my favorite among Pratt´ s Argentinian stories from the 50s.
I am especially fond of the ink and wash technique used in parts of the stories to create Indians and the forest-and-great-lakes atmosphere. Pratt has to share the honor with his assistant Gisela Dester and the writer Hector Oesterheld.
This page was originally published in the Frontera comic book, and the format is different from the Ticonderoga stories published in Frontera Extra (like the other Ticonderoga page I have listed in my 2DG gallery). A typically bad reprint of the page in the standard French Ticonderoga album, p.70.

About Hugo Pratt
Hugo Pratt is considered to be one of the greatest among comic artists for his versatile fantasy and use of graphic freedom, and the combination of these factors resulted in very strange stories. In his tales, reality can change into dream and vice-versa, and in this way he took his readers into the strangest lands and even through time. He is thought to be one of the first comic artists to mix literature with adventure. Hugo Pratt has been a great inspiration to comic artists all over the world.
