Corto Maltese - Die Leopardenmenschen von Rufidschi

In this 2016 single-issue release from Schreiber & Leser, Hugo Pratt—joined by writer Resel Rebiersch—returns to the world of Corto Maltese with a self-contained adventure set in East Africa. The story pits the wandering sailor against the leopard-men of the Rufiji River, a tale rooted in Pratt’s signature blend of historical mystique and globe-trotting intrigue. While brief, it stands as a late-era addition to Pratt’s iconic series, offering fans a fresh glimpse into the atmospheric, morally complex universe he defined.
