Treasure hunter, sailor, and adventurer, Corto Maltese remains one of
the most popular characters from graphic literature in Europe and
maintains a devoted cult following among American readers and creators.
Originally published in 1967, Corto Maltese: The Ballad of the Salt Sea
introduces our hero for the first time. The story begins with Corto
Maltese adrift at sea in the Pacific during World War I. He is picked up
by a Russian pirate/privateer named Rasputin. The graphic novel follows
Corto and the adventure that ensues.
Corto Maltese: The Ballad of the Salt Sea is sure to appeal to fans of swashbuckling action-packed tales and sophisticated readers seeking elegant stories alike.
