Found this at a Local Public Library, in Oregon State - and couldn't put the Graphic Novela down...
When I find this book again - I'm renting it out, and will give some more information on the Author - when painstakingly did two original episodes on his own. The Characters such as Don Diego, is the son of a Wealthy Land Owner from Spain at the time period of the 1800's.
This version is just different than how the Zorro Comic Books are written for the Walt Disney series. The script writer for that version was NOT HAPPY WITH THE WARDROBE personnel for deciding to have the dude in Satin clothes instead of plain black linen. --- perhaps on black n' white camera you can tell what's happening a bit better... when he hides in the shadows.
