The Paper Man

The Paperman is a beautiful adventure, a western comic realized for the French editor Dargaud. In Italy it has been published on Pilot magazine. Manara moves away from experimentalism to write and draw an adventure told from the Indians point of view. Eroticism is lightly touched through the Indian character of White Rabbit while there’s some kind of humour spread in the whole story. It’s also known as Quattro dita, which should have been the title of the series but unfortunately there was an interruption on the first episode due to a change in ownership of the French editor.
