Que bestia Corben, que cosa increíble. Que haya hecho esto en los 70 es descomunal. La fuerza, la energía que derrocha en cada viñeta es una patada a la cabeza. Tal vez más ahora incluso que cuando lo descubrí a los 11, 12 años Nunca había leído esta primera aventura de Den, leí muchísimos trabajos suyos para Warren y muchos de los álbumes publicados en España (mismo tamaño que esta edición). La historia no es tan sorprendente leída hoy como podría haber sido en su momento, pero se sostiene súper bien, la narración es muy ágil y te quedas dos horas mirando cada viñeta. Me pregunto si a los fans del isekai les podría llegar a gustar esto...
