Milo Manara's work has obvious appeal to any male reader. If I were to nit-pick, my only complaint, as with most European artists, is that his work is a bit rough. As opposed to the decorative linestyle of , say, Wrightson or Adams or Steranko or Windsor-Smith.
I think my favorite of Manara's work is his GULLIVERA graphic novel. That was reprinted in its 64 page entirety in the July 1997 issue of HEAVY METAL.
