Büyülü Rüzgar – Taş Surat, Lal Kitap (Magico Vento #9) 2003 Turkish Edition
Description:
This is Büyülü Rüzgar – Taş Surat, the ninth issue of the Magico Vento series published in Turkish by Lal Kitap in 2003. Printed in black and white, this edition continues the original Italian Western-horror narrative adapted for Turkish readers. The original series title is Magico Vento, and this issue corresponds to “Faccia Di Pietra” in the original publication.
Büyülü Rüzgar (Magico Vento), created by Gianfranco Manfredi, is a unique comic series that blends classic Wild West elements with horror, mysticism, and historical realism. The story is set in 1867 and follows Ned Ellis, a former American soldier who survives a train accident but loses his memory and is left gravely injured. He is discovered by the Sioux (Lakota) people, who interpret the metal fragment embedded in his head as the source of supernatural visions, believing it grants him the ability to see the future. Taken in by the tribe, Ned is trained by the shaman and is given the name “Magico Vento” (Büyülü Rüzgar), marking his transformation into a spiritual figure bridging different worlds.
In this ninth issue, “Taş Surat” (Faccia Di Pietra), the narrative continues to develop darker and more intense themes, focusing on characters and situations that reflect both the harshness of frontier life and the emotional and psychological dimensions of the story. The title suggests a figure marked by stoicism or an unyielding nature, and the story builds tension through interactions that test loyalty, identity, and resilience. As with previous issues, Magico Vento remains at the center of events where human conflict intersects with deeper, often unexplained forces, reinforcing the series’ blend of Western storytelling, historical context, and supernatural elements.
