Issued in Turkish and printed in black and white, the series represents a localized adaptation of the Italian Western comic hero originally known as Alan Mistero.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"392\" data-end=\"907\"\u003eAlan Mistero was created in 1965 by the renowned Italian EsseGesse trio—Pietro Sartoris, Dario Guzzon, and Giovanni Sinchetto—who were responsible for several influential European comic series. Their storytelling is characterized by fast-paced narratives, clear visual storytelling, and classic Western themes such as justice, revenge, and frontier survival. Through the Tom Braks identity, Turkish readers were introduced to this iconic character under a localized name, a common publishing practice of the period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"909\" data-end=\"1262\"\u003eOne of the most distinctive features of the Tay Yayınları editions is the use of original cover artwork created by Turkish artists. These covers often differ significantly from their Italian counterparts, giving the series a unique national identity and making each volume particularly interesting for collectors interested in regional comic adaptations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1264\" data-end=\"1680\"\u003eBüyük Albüm 17 includes three complete adventures: “Meçhul Hırsız,” “Korkunç İntikam,” and “Büyük Kin.” Each story reflects the core elements of the Western genre, blending action-driven plots with themes of justice and personal conflict. Based on the printed cover price of 7,500 Lira, this album is most likely published between 1986 and 1988, a period when such pricing aligns with Turkish comic market standards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1682\" data-end=\"1889\"\u003eWith its combination of European comic heritage, Turkish editorial adaptation, and distinctive cover art, this volume stands as a notable collectible within the broader landscape of Turkish comic publishing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1001\" data-end=\"1020\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(170, 26, 23);\"\u003eKey Features:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1891\" data-end=\"1946\"\u003e• Series: Tom Braks (Büyük Albüm Series)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1948\" data-end=\"1967\"\u003e• Issue: Album 17\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1969\" data-end=\"2002\"\u003e• Original Series: Alan Mistero\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2004\" data-end=\"2079\"\u003e• Creators: EsseGesse (Pietro Sartoris, Dario Guzzon, Giovanni Sinchetto)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2081\" data-end=\"2109\"\u003e• Publisher: Tay Yayınları\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2111\" data-end=\"2145\"\u003e• Publication Year: c. 1986–1988\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2147\" data-end=\"2168\"\u003e• Language: Turkish\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2170\" data-end=\"2199\"\u003e• Printing: Black and white\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2201\" data-end=\"2245\"\u003e• Format: Büyük Albüm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2247\" data-end=\"2308\"\u003e• Cover Art: Original covers illustrated by Turkish artists\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2310\" data-end=\"2373\"\u003e• Included Stories: Meçhul Hırsız; Korkunç İntikam; Büyük Kin\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2375\" data-end=\"2429\"\u003e• Series Scope: 20 albums published by Tay Yayınları\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2431\" data-end=\"2449\"\u003e• Genre: Western\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"2451\" data-end=\"2560\"\u003e• Collector Appeal: Localized Turkish edition of a classic Italian Western series with unique cover artwork\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Turkrex Collectables","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47919742156938,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0716\/3687\/7450\/files\/1_d5de9a7f-a208-41d9-bfd6-da2a64f9012a.jpg?v=1775462838","url":"https:\/\/turkrexcollectables.com\/products\/tom-braks-17-alan-mistero-ombrax-turkish-comic-turkey-essegesse","provider":"Turkrex Collectables","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
