Podcast online on Spreaker from Sunday 6 June 2021
Xabaras, the father of Dylan Dog, an anagram of Abraxas, one of the names by which “the great archon”, God, or perhaps his opposite, is known. Fantasy, legend and divinity are the elements on which I built this dark tale in which Xabaras is the lead character. Pablo Solari
Synopsis
During a distant winter, that which was once known as the Piccolo Teatro is now a ruin overrun by vegetation and inhabited by a young man and a majestic black horse. Xabaras, a mysterious pilgrim, arrives at the door of the Teatro asking for shelter in exchange for precious knowledge.
