What Isthedifference Betweena Retaining Walland

What will remain of those 80 ... Questions

We stayed at the turn of the year 1981/82 ...

From here on in my memories zagoriani are more dilated in time.

Also because my interests were directed elsewhere: I had enrolled in the Faculty of Law, University Cattolica del Sacro Cuore di Milano (That I dealt with - as you can imagine - a long time) and my passion for fantasy literature was growing, and now that I started to write tales of sword and sorcery inspired by those of Conan the Barbarian by Robert E. Howard and his followers. This interest led me to my last go to the world of fanzines of that genre and found its natural outlet to nell'affiliazione City Club of Milan, club fans of science fiction / fantasy / horror, with the shareholders to whom also attended the Convention of Italian science fiction (OrwellCon) which was held in 1984 in Montegrotto Terme (PD).

Anyway, back to Zagora, my memories of those 80 are, again, depend on certain books of Zagor. For example ...

The first adventure written by Toninelli ( A weird outlaw ) and I appreciated that I read during my summer holiday to Madesimo in 1982 as a guest of the Hotel-Crystal Falls, where the same at the time housed the poet Carducci .
The arrival of a new villain it fits perfectly The ambush of the Mutant , a comic that I recovered some time later in a kiosk in the railway station of Milano-Porta Garibaldi since its release in August 1983, I was in the mountains, the Locca Bezzecca, in Trentino, a guest of my friend Ariel , where comic books do not arrive. The roll
Timber Bill , Which I bought from a kiosk station Cadorna Milan subway and had (the only case in the regular series), the glossy cover.

adventure titled The Duel to the great lakes, which I read aloud to my grandson Andrew of six years, among charmed by scortro Zagor and a giant bear depicted on the cover. The roll
Devils blacks (with the infamous return Supermike !!!), I bought in August 1984 in Rome, always a guest of my friend Ariel (this time at home the father). The return of Olaf
Botegosky in Zagor against Zagor, in April 1985 ...

But what made me really happy, zagoriani speaking, the news was the exit of the revised reprint called TuttoZagor ! Again I remember perfectly that no I bought a aedicule not far from my university ... Another memory I have of those years, always inherent in this new reissue is that it lent the numbers 1 to 13 in a seminar that was was sent in my town to help manage the oratory and found to be a "nostalgic Zagoria" became friends and he liked to read a lot of those early episodes ... When he became a priest in 1988, among other things I gave him a copy of the first Special Zagor, released in June of that year ...

Another pleasant surprise was the inclusion, since the June 1987 ( The murderess stone ) of the page mail in the new series of Zagor ... Finally, readers could find an "outlet" to their requests and questions that are answered in the legendary Sergio Bonelli! Just as I appreciated very much Journal Sergio Bonelli, the supplement in full color illustrating the characters and the books out of the publishing house, whose first issue was included in annexed to the register in June 1988 ...


And so the '80s came to an end. ..
