Description
"It could go straight through the core of the planet!"

The Digger is a blast of pure nostalgia for me from 1977. Androcles and the Lion re-written for the gonzo Roman Empire of Trigo and the planet Elekton.

Page a of the final episode; the colours, design and mis-en-scene of Frey's pages are sublime.

This has to be one of the great post-Lawrence Trigan stories and this page - with that final panel - is very memorable indeed. Congrats!
