Via Mazzini 83 Ravenna

Five people wake up in a old factory. They don’t know each other. They do not know who has locked up them there or why, and have no memory of how they came there. The factory is a maze with no way out, and from its spectral corridors sounds and voices of other human beings come out...

In this way begins FactorY, the comic created by Gianluca Morozzi (lyrics) and Michael Petrucci (drawings). First of three volumes that come out every four that makes up the first part of this project along the lines of the TV series.
