Massimiliano Frezzato<\/h1><\/h2><\/span>
<\/div><\/div><\/div>
<\/div><\/div>

Massimiliano Frezzato was born in Torino in 1967. He began to draw at an early age and had his first work published when he was 17. He worked for the advertisement industry for some years but came back to comics in 1995 when he began to work on the \u201cGardiens du Maser\u201d, a saga that will keep him busy for more than 10 years!<\/p>\n

The saga was first published in France by USA Editions\u00a0 between 1996 and 2005. In 2009, Desinge & Hugo & Cie divided in in two trilogies. Alas, this version was no longer available for quite some years due to a disagreement between the author and the editor.<\/p>\n

The organisation of a great exhibition about Frezzato\u2019s work in Summer \u201918 (17\/06 \u2013 14\/10 massimilianofrezzato.com) pulled the trigger to bring his work back to life.<\/p>\n

The previous translation of \u201cGuardians of the Maser\u201d was a bit\u2026 (sorry Nikita!) blurry. But today, Caurette Editions are really happy to present a new French version, revised by the author. We hope it will make this work more accessible for everyone since this science-fictionsaga, set in what seems to be a traditional\/post-apocalyptic world, is also a complexe universe with a strong scenario that won\u2019t stop surprising you!<\/p>\n

Cherry on the cake: this version was made from new scans of the original plates that allow us to see all the genius of Frezzato\u2019s art!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

<\/div><\/div>

On planet Kolonie, some humans spread here and there, are trying to survive. Few of them still remember the era of the \u201cGreat Splendor\u201d, that time before the war between men and dwarfs, these genetically modified workers who also wanted to enjoy this paradise planet.<\/p>\n

In this far-away land, a race against the clock has began. There is almost no time left to find the Tower, their only chance to stop the curse that threatens their world.<\/p>\n

Zerit boarded his aircraft to save Kolonie. His journey will be full of obstacles, incredible friendships, unforgettable encounters and dramatic revelations\u2026 but, will he be able to get there in time?<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
