Plutos

Plutos was a series in which some traditional themes of American comics (and in particular the theme of the masked hero) were exploited by G. L. Bonelli for an action-rich story, splendidly depicted by the lively artwork of Leone Cimpellin. Bill Donovan, determined to avenge his brother's death after the latter was killed in a fight between rival gangs, wore a Batman-type costume; helped by the beautiful Lula Michigan and the former boxer Joe, he engaged in a battle against gangsters and sect of deceitful Chinese. One of the characteristics of the protagonist was his pistols, which gave off a sleep-inducing gas that had the effect of drugging its victims, who were destined to awaken the next day, in prison!
