NOTES

The Giant's speech is written in Etruscan font, but the word he uses is in Sardinian dialect.
As seen in "La stirpe maledetta" (Martin Mystére #4), Etruscan and Sardinian shared the same alphabet because their civilizations were both heavily influenced by Atlantean culture.

The line "Is it an impression or..." was often used by Alfredo Castelli in his early Martin Mystère books, becoming a sort of a trademark.

The reassembled Giant in this page is the Warrior variant, which artist Seb figured out by using other statues from ancient Sardinia.

The "Tomb of Giants" site in Arzachena has a name that we simply had to use somehow in this Giant-based comic.

The synchronic energies drawn from the Ley Lines are an established element of the original Martin Mystère canon.

Unfortunately, the present-day version of Martin Mystère has gotten fairly detached from the old concept of "mystery", and his skepticism makes him blind to archaeological/mysterious wonders.
