Get to know the real face of the Renaissance. The face of the Renaissance that you were not taught about in school. The Renaissance that brings the flowering of art and the decline of morality. A Renaissance with blood on its hands. The Renaissance as told by two comic book grandmasters.
Even before the star-studded series about "the world's first crime family", the papal family that ruthlessly ruled all of Italy at the end of the fifteenth century, two of comics' greatest legends came together to put their own spin on this fascinating subject. The mystic, philosopher, composer, director and revered screenwriter Alejandro Jodorowsky (Incal, Metabaroni) and the king of elegant erotic comics and friend of Frederico Fellini, Milo Manara, took on the profile of the Borgia family. The two of them alone deserve absolute attention (which in the case of Jodorowsky, readers have already witnessed with the magical Incal and Metabarons), and that makes for something that simply cannot be missed. The four-part historical epic Borgia. Monumental, cruel, sensual, beautiful and unforgettable.
