帰らざる時の物語
The Tale of a Time Gone By reúne veinticuatro historias cortas publicadas originalmente en la revista Play Comic durante la década de 1970. Cada relato gira en torno al paso del tiempo y sus efectos sobre los personajes, que se enfrentan a situaciones donde la memoria, la soledad y la naturaleza humana se convierten en ejes centrales.
A lo largo de estas historias, los protagonistas se ven arrastrados por encuentros con lo extraordinario y lo cotidiano, mientras exploran la fragilidad de sus emociones y decisiones. La ciencia ficción se entrelaza con la fantasía para reflexionar sobre cómo el ser humano se relaciona con su entorno y consigo mismo, a menudo en un mundo que cambia más rápido de lo que pueden asimilar.
Con un tono melancólico y una mirada profunda hacia lo psicológico, la obra plantea preguntas sobre la identidad y el legado, sin dejar de lado la aventura. Una colección que invita a la introspección a través de relatos independientes pero unidos por una misma inquietud: el tiempo que pasa y lo que dejamos atrás.
