Cong - Hugo Pratt Art Properties

In 1987, on April 24th, Pratt signed over the property and use of the rights for all of his works, past and future to CONG SA. Pratt wanted Cong, his own “syndicate”, to manage everything to do with his creations, and that is why he gave total control of his works to Cong. The Cong company is currently very active in the management and promotion of the entire art estate of Hugo Pratt, in addition to his most famous character. Books that have been out of print have been reprinted in recent years, such as Fanfulla, Captain Cormorant, and Billy James. Cong has recently published works that were previously unpublished, such as Sandakan, or previously self-published, such as Tuttifumetti (all-of-the-comics), a catalogue of the complete Pratt’s works. Most recently, Cong has edited The Long Range Desert Group series with new coloring. Cong SA rights management covers publishing, merchandising, media and exhibits of the Pratt works. Corto Maltese is an international copyright. The name and signature of Hugo Pratt is Trademark. ©CONG SA legally covers the works of Pratt and everything derived from it.
