Anna Lynch - La porta d'Oriente

In this Italian historical drama from Coniglio Editore, Anna Lynch—a young Irishwoman—arrives in 18th-century Venice as a servant, only to find herself entangled in the city’s shadowy political and mercantile intrigues. Launched in 2008, the single-issue series was crafted by writer and artist Giuseppe Palumbo, whose evocative black-and-white art captures the labyrinthine canals and claustrophobic power games of the Serenissima. Though brief, the story stands as a focused, atmospheric snapshot of a foreigner navigating a world of secrets, where every doorway might lead to danger or opportunity.
