Chris Carella Graphic Novel #01

11 Marzo 2019/in CHRIS, OTHER

The main character: Christine J. Carella is a young woman living alone in a large city; a modern anonymous city which could be Los Angeles and which provides the stage for all kinds of adventures.
The problems that give rise to her adventures are the same everyone has, work, money, relationships with others, people bullying her, love and so on.

What can you say about a character who never born?
She was beautiful! And intelligent.

She loved Moon River sung by Audrey Hepburn and she crying with Casablanca.

Chris Carella was a mixture of drama, comedy, and romance,(comedy-drama, or “dramedy”) and was one of the good examples of script by comic. But the series was never published, the Italian comics are still the same as those of the 50’s, only: bang! bang! aarhg… shot! kill him! etc…

If we find a good artist will publish with OutisFumetti

Benito Jacovitti
Lisca di Pesce, Jac
(9 March 1923 – 3 December 1997, Italy)

Benito Jacovitti is probably the most famous Italian satirical cartoonist, best known for his absurd and humorous series full of grotesque characters and bizarre events, like ‘Cocco Bill’ and ‘Zorry Kid’. He was born Benito Franco Iacovitti in Termoli, in the province of Campobasso, as the son of a railroad worker and a mother of Albanese origins. His father had a fascination for the powerful political figures of the time, hence his son’s first names. Young Benito drew his first comic stories on the stones of the Termoli pavements at the age of 6.

He eventually headed to Florence, where he attended Art School. By 1939, Jacovitti (he artistically exchanged the first letter of his family name for a J) contributed his first cartoons to the satirical weekly Il Brivido. At this time, he also made the sole continuing story of his career for the Turin based publisher La Taurina, titled ‘L’Eroe delle Cinque Giornate’.
