Art: José Ortiz

Script: Antonio Segura

José Ortiz created the character of But O'Brien - The Bodyguard for the Italian magazine Torpedo in 1990.

  With script by Antonio Segura, the series is set in the American roaring twenties. The main character is a failed boxer turned bodyguard who has an uncanny ability to get into trouble.

Key Points:

• Although a minor series in the output of these two geniuses, it contains sequences of great brilliance

• It is curious to see how Ortiz's art, vigorous and energetic as always, seems to be influenced by another series set in the same period, Torpedo 1936

Technical info:

•  Original title: But O'Brien

•  Content: 7 stories of 8-10 pages each (66 pages - B/W)
