from Mantua to Miami
Trovare in una biblioteca pubblica di Los Angeles un libro che cita un nostro lavoro (che poca risonanza ha avuto pure nella sua città) è sempre una soddisfazione. Il nostro fumetto, Amanti a Mantova, narra del ritrovamento degli scheletri abbracciati, di due amanti. Troviamo una recensione nel libro The Bioarchaeology of Socio-Sexual Lives: Queering Common Sense About Sex, Gender, and Sexuality di Pamela L. Geller pubblicato da University of Miami. Un piccola soddisfazione.

Mary Perkins cameo in Chris Carella
Mary Perkins cameo in Chris Carella
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…

who’s Joe Shlabotnik ?
who’s Joe Shlabotnik ?
Charlie Brown reads some bad news about his hero in the strip from July 30, 1964.
Joe Shlabotnik is a retired major league baseball player and, like all adults, an unseen character in the world of Charles M. Schulz‘s long-running comic strip, Peanuts. He was first referred to by name in the Sunday strip from August 18, 1963, although Schroeder mentions a pianist named “Joseph Schlabotnik” in the February 22, 1957 strip, and a storyline which ran between May 7 and May 10, 1963 revolves around the distress caused to Charlie Brown when his unnamed favorite baseball player is sent down to the minors. Joe Shlabotnik’s less than stellar baseball career would go on to cause a great deal of similar upset to Charlie Brown for many years to come. Nevertheless, Charlie Brown would remain a devoted fan of Shlabotnik.
Charlie Brown creates a Joe Shlabotnik fanzine in the Sunday strip from March 8, 1970.

Christmas With The Cartoonists: Magnus
Lo Sconosciuto (Italian: [lo skonoʃˈʃuːto], The Unknown [One]) is an Italian comics series created in 1975 by Roberto Raviola, better known by his pseudonym Magnus. It has been translated into English as The Specialist.
The series and its eponymous character was created by Magnus after a series of trips abroad and was defined together with his friend, the singer and writer Francesco Guccini. It was the first great creation by Magnus after he had left Editoriale Corno and his partnership with writer Max Bunker, with whom he had created famous series such as Kriminal and Alan Ford. Published in July 1975 by Edizioni Del Vascello (Renzo Barbieri‘s publisher), it is considered his finest achievement. The last Sconosciuto story was released in 1984, though a short prologue for another, never published story appeared in 1996 as a dedication to his friend, the cartoonist Franco Bonvicini, who had recently died.
