pencil and ink on thin cardboard
35 x 25 cm
Original comic art made by Magnus for "All the Men of the Law, " contained in Act III of The Brigands on page 17 and first published in the Orient Express comics in 1988. A work that accompanied the Bolognese master throughout most of his career, from 1973 until his death, ensuring that the graphic style changed over time following his stylistic evolution. Inspired by a 13th-century Chinese novel, Magnus develops the story in a science fiction manner: he draws inspiration from Flash Gordon and Saturn Against the Earth, moving from the future Middle Ages to spaceships, in an exotic, fairy-tale setting he mixes realistic and technological elements, uniting East and West. Note the rare absence of corrections often used by Magnus.
