This is page 159 from the Junglemen story. First published in Argentina in 1949-50. Reformatted by Pratt himself and republished in Italy in Sgt Kirk magazine - this page in No 22, april 1969. Also published in the second Italian Junglemen album, L´ultimo assalto.
A very early Pratt page, a very Milton Caniffian fight scene.

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.
