The creation of Giancarlo Berardi, Julia Kendall possesses more than a little (intentional) resemblance to Audrey Hepburn. The 30-something Julia has been designed by Berardi not as a stereotypical sex symbol, but an introspective, well-educated modern woman with a classic beauty. She lives in Garden City, not far from New York, where she works in close collaboration with the police, contributing her expertise in criminal psychology to solve cases received from the District Attorney. No specific details about the game's plot have yet been revealed.
The decison by Artematica to create a comic adaptation should come as no surprise, as the studio has previously released Druuna and Martin Mystere, with Diabolik still to come.
Julia is currently scheduled for release late this year.
