Abstract

Historical novel Čuvaj se senjske ruke (1876) by renowned Croatian writer August Šenoa (1838 - 1881) has been the recorder by the number of his strip adaptations. Albert Kinert was the first Croatian author who conveyed this novel to the media of comic books; second was the tandem Andrija Maurović and Norbert Neugebauer, while the third adaptation was the work of Mladen Trnski. Two Serbian artists (Filipović and Veselinović) also found inspiration in Šenoa's novel, as well as one Russian artist - Jurij Pavlovič Lobačev, whose comic strip was first published in Croatian and Latin script in 2011. Lobačev explained at the time that he had chosen this Croatian novel because he had quality literature for the template, but also because Šenoa's novel expressed eternal values such as struggle for freedom, friendship, honesty, and love. This paper gives an analysis of Lobačev's comic strip mentioned, as well as the works of other artists.
