Ci sono cascato di nuovo e ho comprato il primo volume del sequel di ControNatura, Sangue Blu.
La storia è sempre di Mirka Andolfo, mentre i disegni sono per la maggior parte in mano a Ivan Bigarella (Andolfo si limita a illustrare sogni e visioni). Secondo me, questa scelta non premia, perché in qualche modo costringe il lettore a un confronto, in cui, nonostante la bravura di Bigarella, Mirka non può perdere. Comunque, la qualità grafica è sempre molto alta.

Passando alla trama, devo dire che è incominciata molto bene: i collegamenti alle vicende della prima saga sono molto presenti, ma Sangue Blu ci offre una storia nuova, con un suo carattere, seppure non sia immune da alcuni cliché. Il nuovo personaggio, la lupetta adolescente Shea, risulta simpatico anche se un po' stereotipato (si tratta di una classica teenager rude e tagliente nelle risposte, ma mossa da un cuore tenero che la spinge a cercare i suoi genitori scomparsi).
Altro fatto da segnalare è la netta diminuzione delle scene più fanservice: meno scollature e meno cosce in vista, forse per il diverso gusto artistico de nuovo disegnatore. Chi mi conosce sa che non avrei avuto nulla in contrario, ma dato che nella prima saga erano abbastanza inutili, inserite solo per stuzzicare l'occhio, ben venga la loro assenza.

Lettura consigliata solo a chi ha letto ControNatura.
