Mandrake Selezione
Mandrake Selezione was an Italian comic book dedicated to Mandrake and published by Fratelli Spada from November 1976 to December 1979.
History
The stories in Mandrake Selezione were mainly dailies by Fred Fredericks, except one Sunday story and one reprint of a Fratelli Spada story. One find various back-up stories such as Agent X9, Big Ben Bolt, Captain Kate, Cino e Franco, Cisci Kid, Flash Gordon and Rip Kirby.
The series was translated into French by Editions des Remparts and sold as "Mondes Mystérieux - Spécial Mandrake - Nouvelle Serie" in France and Canada.
After the last issue (#19), unsold issues of the series were collected into Super Mandrake albums under new covers.
A similar series, entitled "Phantom Selezione", was also published by Fratelli Spada for featuring "The Phantom".
