Description:

Judas Issue #11 is a Turkish black-and-white comic published in 1981 by Tay Yayınları, marking the first issue of the Judas series released in Turkey. The series ran for a total of 16 issues and was published on a biweekly schedule. Printed in Turkish and in black and white, Judas reflects the production standards and market conditions of early 1980s Turkish comic publishing.

The character Judas was created by Ennio Missaglia and is portrayed as a former bandit whose real name is Alan Scott. After the death of his girlfriend Vivien during a robbery in which he took part, he is consumed by guilt and ultimately turns himself and his accomplices over to justice, earning the ironic nickname “Judas.” This moral transformation defines the core of the series, blending classic western action with themes of redemption, remorse, and personal justice.

Issue #11 is titled Geçmişin Kurbanları , originally published as Daishò (#11). Beyond its story content, the Turkish Judas series is particularly prized by collectors due to its distinctive covers, all illustrated by Turkish artist Aslan Şükür. His artwork gives the series a unique local character, making the Tay Yayınları edition stand out among western comics published in Turkey during this period and significantly enhancing its collectible value.
