Delphine No. 2

Delphine #2

by Richard Sala

In the second installment of Richard Sala's dark and suspenseful mini-series, the mysterious traveler finds himself sinking deeper and deeper into nightmare territory. The locals seem determined to undermine his every move and he soon finds himself stranded and alone in the ancient forest — and night is falling... This twisted re-imagining of Snow White, told from the viewpoint of the "prince" and set in modern times, continues with more of Sala's eerily beautiful painted artwork and a startling plot that veers as far away from the countless saccharine versions of Grimm's folk tale as possible.

About the author

Richard Sala grew up with a fascination for musty old museums, dusty old libraries, cluttered antique shops, narrow alleyways, hidden truths, double meanings, sinister secrets and spooky old houses. He has written and drawn a number of unusual graphic novels which often combine elements of classic mystery and horror stories and which have been known to cause readers to emit chuckles as well as gasps. Although most of his books are written with teens and older readers in mind, his book, CAT BURGLAR BLACK, can be enjoyed by younger readers as well.

Il classico 6 scolastico per il seguito del primo capitolo di Richard Sala. Non c'è molto da dire, se non le citazioni già scritte nella trama presente su goodreads: continuano le atmosfere e i spaventosi disegni dai toni cupi e ingialliti capaci d'enfatizzare la situazione.

Restato male per il "finale" sospeso, che poi sospeso non è (mancano ancora due volumi...e io ora dove li recupero questi, vista la fatica per trovare i primi due su ebay.it ? Farò l'ennesimo tentativo a quanto pare, visto che ora desidero scoprire come andrà a finire questa storia!).

Richard Sala fumettista perfetto e consigliato per chi ama il genere horror / suspance / avventura
