Writer. Simon Furman
Artist. Geoff Senior
CONCEPT:
Manuela Sanchez is the daughter of world-famous matador Manuel Sanchez, 'El Lobo'. But when the family name is blackened by malicious scandal, El Lobo is forced into ignominious retirement, his reputation forever tainted. Manuela suspects the hand of the rival Rodriguez family, and particularly their scheming and ambitious son, Cesar, himself a matador. But she can prove nothing.
As her father spirals deeper into despair and ruin, Manuela's only hope lies in restoring the family honour herself, through feats of incredible daring and high risk. To this end, she begins a quest to seek out legendary beasts and deadly creatures, besting them in honourable single combat. But Cesar is determined to thwart her at every turn, and claim each 'kill' as his own (though Manuela herself rarely resorts to lethal force). Cesar seeks to delay, frustrate and hamper her efforts, and deliver the coup de grace himself.
This action-adventure scenario comes complete with a powerful back story of honour, betrayal and courage, featuring exotic locations, colourful adversaries, legendary monsters and a strong, unflinching heroine in the Lara Croft mode. Perfect for comic book, computer game, toy, TV and film adaptations.
Ages 8 and up .
