For those who like laughter, tears, legends and adventures, famous comic book artist and illustrator Lorenzo Mattotti brings a story: Once upon a time, when bears still roamed the mountains of Sicily, Léonce, the King of Bears, was playing in the river with his son Tonio. Suddenly, Tonio was kidnapped by hunters. In the hope of finding his son, the Bear King decides to invade the land of men. Thanks to his powerful army and the help of a wizard, he succeeds at both quests, but soon finds out that bears are not meant to live in the land of men.
