The September catalog of Dolmen Editorial keeps up the pace. Amid historical rescues and new releases, the publisher once again demonstrates that it not only knows its audience but also cares for it. Raucous humor, classic science fiction, unforgettable strips, and parodic tributes coexist in an offer that, without ostentation, makes it clear that comics have more than one life.
DRAGON FALL RETURNS – The Return of Chaos
Talking about Dragon Fall is to talk about a generational phenomenon. And Nacho Fernández knows this well. In Dragon Fall Returns, Fernández teams up with heavyweights of graphic humor such as Enrique Vegas, Ricardo Peregrina, and Norberto Fernández to breathe new life into the parodic universe that defined the nineties. Gags galore, pop culture on steroids, and the irreverent spirit intact. Is it necessary to know Dragon Ball to enjoy it? No. But if you do, laughter is guaranteed.
JUDGE ANDERSON: SATAN – Beyond Good and the System
Alan Grant and Arthur Ranson produce one of the most intense volumes of the month. Judge Anderson faces the devil himself in a story that blends social criticism, psychological horror, and art that continues to chill decades later. Unpublished in Spain until now, this volume maintains the level of Shamballa and reminds us why the 2000 AD universe remains as relevant as it is disturbing.
NEMESIS THE WARLOCK vol. 3 – The Eternal Fire of Dystopia
The duo of Pat Mills and Kevin O’Neill, along with Bryan Talbot, recovers one of the most brutal sagas of British comics in glorious black and white (with occasional color). Tyrannosaurs returning, resurrected dictators, and a cult that devours the soul of science fiction: Nemesis is not an easy read, but it is an essential work. Politics, religion, violence, and an aesthetic that has lost none of its visual impact.
UNSTOPPABLE CLASSICS: HÄGAR, DICK TRACY, MUTTS
Dolmen continues to enrich its library with lovingly crafted editions of iconic strips:
-
Hägar the Horrible (1976-1977): Viking humor, domestic routine, and a well-earned nap.
-
Dick Tracy (1950-51): the toughest detective against increasingly violent foes. Gould in top form.
-
Mutts 2021: 40 years later, Earl and Mooch continue to spread love, irony, and tenderness. With endorsements from Schulz and Groening, not much more needs to be said.
THE BIG-HEADED ONES OF THE GALAXIES – A Collection for Nostalgics (and New Padawans)
Twenty years after its debut, Enrique V. Vegas compiles his most beloved parody in a comprehensive full-color edition. If you ever dreamed of seeing a big-headed Darth Vader, this is your book. If not, it’s still for you. Because Vegas not only parodies, he reinvents with style and turns popular references into something new, with humor as a bridge.
BLACK MAX, MANDRAKE AND SAMMY – Packs for Classic Enthusiasts
With editorial acuity, Dolmen launches three packs of invaluable worth:
-
Black Max: pulp aerial adventures with zeppelins and monsters, featuring art by Alfonso Font.
-
Mandrake the Magician: espionage, impossible mansions, and magic from the pages of American newspapers.
-
Sammy: Chicago, the 1920s, and high-brow European humor with dynamic artwork.
