L´ ombra page

Some Pratt fans don´t like L´ Ombra. Me, I think it is brilliant. A mix of Milton Caniff-style chiaroscuro, sixties Pop Art and graphic experimentations with pointers towards his next big project, a certain Ballata del Mare Salato (The Ballad of the Salt Sea). This page 28 from the second story features the hero (an amalgam of James Bond, The Phantom and Pratt´ s and Alberto Ongaro´ s old hero Asso di picche), as well as all the principal and colorful villains: The Admiral, the criminal mastermind, Alice, the treacherous and sexy villainess, and last but not least, Oscar, the murderous, whining and cowardly little robot.
