Tex Willer LU #207: Na putu uspomena
The ruins of San Joaquin bring back memories of Lilyth. Around the campfire, Tex tells his friends how the Apache warrior Cuervo Malo once trapped the couple in the mission.
In On the Trail of Memories, the ruins of the San Joaquin mission take Tex Willer back to the days when he rode beside his wife, Lilyth. Sitting around a campfire with his friends, he tells them for the first time what happened within those walls and how a siege nearly ended their life together.
In Tex’s account, the Apache warrior Cuervo Malo and his men surround the mission. Tex and Lilyth are forced to defend themselves from inside its walls. The mission gives them cover, but the siege holds them in place. To survive, they must withstand the attacks of the men who have them surrounded.
Claudio Nizzi frames the adventure as a story Tex chooses to tell. The campfire gives the siege a personal dimension: Tex remembers the danger and the life he shared with Lilyth. In Fabio Civitelli’s drawings, the same walls serve two purposes — in the present they are ruins that stir a memory; in Tex’s story they are the shelter his and Lilyth’s lives depend on.
