První část komiksového zpracování příběhů oblíbeného brutálního detektiva, který po boku se svým věrným společníkem, detektivem čekatelem Stulíkem bojuje se zločinem. V boji se zločinci, zejména však s obávaným Démonem zločinu, používá stejných prostředků jako oni. Podle námětu undergroundového klasika Jana Pelce namaloval Andrej S. Kostič, srbský výtvarník žijící v Česku (např. ilustrace k románům Vyhoďme ho z kola ven, Pán much a Lola běží o život).
"William Golding's unforgettable classic of boyhood adventure and the savagery of humanity comes to this Classics Deluxe Edition with a new foreword by Lois Lowry. As provocative today as when it was first published in 1954, Lord of the Flies continues to ignite passionate debate with its startling, brutal portrait of human nature. William Golding's compelling story about a group of very ordinary boys marooned on a coral island has been labeled a parable, an allegory, a myth, a morality tale, a parody, a political treatise, and even a vision of the apocalypse. But above all, it has earned its place as one of the indisputable classics of the twentieth century for readers of any age. This Penguin Classics Graphic Deluxe Edition features an array of special features to supplement the novel, including a foreword by Lois Lowry, an introduction by Stephen King, an essay by E.M. Forster, an essay on teaching and reading the novel and suggestions for further exploration by scholar Jennifer Buehler, and an extended note by E.L. Epstein, the publisher of the first American edition."--Publisher information
