ven the comic, "popular" genre par excellence, meets the historical figure of Lucrezia Borgia, in a not to be missed album for the lovers of this form of communication which will see three cult characters of the world of talking bubbles: Diabolik, Dago and Martin Mystere, operating and meeting with each other, in a single editorial gem. These eternal paper heroes of Italian comics are the protagonists of three autonomous and self-conclusive stories, to respect the personalities of the characters, but bound to each other by an expedient narrative: a search which rediscovers the mysterious world of Lucrezia.
In the first story, Dago, character of Robin Wood published in Italy in independent albums and on the pages of "Lancio Story", meets Lucrezia Borgia in the Ferrara of the Este family, as a living witness to a historic event which concerns her. An "object" appears in the story-we will not give away what- that constitutes the expedient narrative to create this fantastic journey through the centuries on the comic boards.
In the second story, we are in contemporary Ferrara, place of great and prestigious exhibitions. The object is shown at an exhibition and this tempts Diabolik, the famous character created by the Giussani sisters, who arrives at Ferrara to steal it. The story establishes an "expedient" to "visit" the town and give information on the human adventure of Lucrezia Borgia.
In the last story we are still in present day Ferrara. Martin Mystere, the encyclopaedic detective of the impossible, reveals the "mystery" of the object revealing more information and observations on the historical figure of Lucrezia Borgia. The initiative is realised thanks to the collaboration of the Astorina, Eura Editoriale and Sergio Bonelli Editore publishing houses, the album will be published and sold by Editoriale Sometti of Mantova.
