WHAT'S MEDIEVAL RANGERS?
Medieval Rangers is presented as a unique artifact, an ancient codex in which an entire procession of characters, magicians, spiritual warriors and alien gods that make up the mythology of a retro-futuristic universe in which higher concepts unfold, as the treatment of violence or the echoes of classical culture mixed with today's pop, like the Power Rangers. Starting from the oldest story -the struggle of good against evil, Roberto Masso makes a brainstorming narrative exercise in which each page is presented as a work of art in its own.
THE PRESS SAYS ...
"In this book, there is a convergence of absolutely surreal references: manuscripts of the fifteenth century as the Bellifortis or the most modern and strange Codex Seraphinianus, plus some Japanese aesthetics (from Godzilla to mangaka Motohiro Hayakawa) Quite a molotov cocktail.." Tendències El Mundo
"Symbols, allegories fantasy mix in a book full of mystery, fun and visual cues " El Diario Montañés
"I imagine in 500 years someone finding a chest buried in the desert of New Mexico with a copy of Medieval Rangers. He could not help but have the feeling of owning a unique jewel in his hands." la Central
