All My Fumetti Are Belong To You

Or at least I'm working on it!

Here's my Flickr set gallery of fumetti cover scans.

As I mentioned, I'm not trying to get banned from Flickr, so I'm playing by the rules and putting these pics behind a content advisory, which I'm afraid requires signing in to a Flickr account--and if you don't have one, they're free and easy to set up. I daresay you'll find it worth the hassle, getting a nice eyeful of all those lurid covers in hi-res.

So far, I've got all my Terrors, Zoras, Sukias, Frankensteins, Hallucinations: Frankensteins, and Jaculas up. I'll update throughout the day as I add more runs to the set (I'm hoping to be done by tonight, if my scanner doesn't catch on fire).

Many, many thanks again to David Wahl, who answered my call for help almost immediately, and made all this possible by gifting me with an upgrade to a Pro account. Why not drop by his sites, Monkey Goggles and Mostly Forbidden Zone, and maybe let him know how much we appreciate it. Enjoy the galleries (here's the paperback one, in case you missed it), Groovy Agers, and stay tuned, because there's plenty more to come!

UPDATE: Okay, I have since added--Kriminal, Satanik, Hostess, Oltretomba, and Cappuccetto Rosso. Currently scanning Maghella . . .

UPDATE 2: So Maghella and Biancaneve are in the can. A couple issues of Wallestein, and then it's on to the grand finale . . . Lucifera!!!

Don't know if you're already aware but Tony Raiola of Eurocomics is reprinting the ZORA series in english. I picked up a copy at Long Beach this weekend (along with some MAXI GOLDRAKE super-sized fumettis in italian).

Zora is a hoot and a half.

I have a few books you sent (and a few more Wallestein books), would you like scans?

Wow! My only experience with fumetti is the terrible "Marvel Fummetti Book" from Marvel Comics. I'd say you've got me beat!

Hm, interesting cover art, im assuming these are from the 80s? i enjoy how graphic they do the covers, its like an art in its own. something movies and books kinda forget these days.
