Synopsis: Dumog used to be an ogre. Mistress Mortana spelled him
back to man with a revenge to transform his beloved Byrna as ugly ogre
instead. A living carcass talks Dumog round to kill Mistress to
reverse everything like they were. Rotten head promises that Dumog will
be a handsome prince.
Comment: The rerun of "Ogre [I]" story
is a little bit useless. Graphically story is brilliant, but the story
does not give
anything
new or interesting.
The first story was made in a photo collage technique and Mr. Corben wanted originally
to do the same with this sequel, but he had to forget that idea.
Mistress Mortana has a great resemblance with sexy Horrilor.
Back to human form transformed Byrna looks like a model
Karen Gibertson, who
Mr. Corben used a lot.
