- West of Eden
-published in Argentina with its original title "The man in Somalia" - Hugo Pratt takes us to one of the landscapes that have marked his life: the Somali desert. Here the Western powers have played their "place in the sun", ignoring that in these territories, so vast, desolate and old, not much has changed over the centuries. The legends, myths and beliefs are the same as from the beginning of time. Maybe their players too. - Ana De La Jungla

- Cato Zulu
Cato Zulu is a typical cartoon Pratt '80s. It was published in the journal Corto Maltese Italian, divided into two sagas, one of 1984 and again in 1988. We also see in this work some of the elements common to almost all the work of the giant Venetian. First of all, the ability to turn a minor historical event, almost forgotten, on the basis on which to build an excellent script. For that we must be very canchero in the management of historical reference, but we must also give fleshiness and relief to the characters and the story is sustained. Cato Zulu is not the best creation of Hugo Pratt, but still high-level historical adventure, with climates, characters, dialogues and sequences in which the teacher makes it clear that even laburando half machine, they spent the cloth at most [read full 365 comics per year ].

- Sven: Caribbean Adventurer
In Argentina the magazine published under the title Svend Skorpio, and Spain Totem renamed the Caribbean Adventurer. We could say that Svend is a distant relative of short, perhaps a grandchild unrecognized. It features themes in Pratt, but not repetitive, remote beaches, hidden stories, dangerous women, and a love so deep into the sea can be felt in each frame. The scan is impeccable nachof merit of CRG .

The plot takes us to the beginnings of the colonial era in North America and thanks to careful documentation work presents the context in which facts may well be the seventeenth century, including the prosecution of the witches of Salem in 1692. Indian Summer, correspond to that time in early fall when the temperature increases (which we call the "Indian Summer in San Miguel") and the Anglophone culture, apparently associated with a period which shows the beginning of its end.

The first pages show the conflict triggered the argument: the rape of an English girl by some Indians. The girl is assisted and avenged by Abner, a member of the Lewis family, outcasts among white men.
