Comment
Interior art from " Il Grande Diabolik: Gli anni perduti nel sangue" (" Years lost in blood), a beautiful story about the character origin and a story which tries to unveils some misteries. This action sequence is set into the forest of the King's island in which a young Diabolik for the first time was trained in the art of killing. A beautiful example of the Palumbo's ability as illustrator and storyteller.
