Born today Santo D’Amico

After studying at the Liceo Artistico, Santo D’Amico (11 December 1927 – 25 October 1995) moved on to study Architecture. While still studying, he presented his drawings and comics to several publishers. He had his first publications in Il Giornalino, doing lots of illustrations and “cinema novels” like ‘Sifrid’, ‘Capitani Coraggiosi’ and ‘Guglielmo Tell’. While also cooperating with Paoline publishers, he began a collaboration with Il Vittorioso, for which he illustrated series like ‘Na’Giamba’, ‘Speron d’Oro’, ‘Squadriglia Acrobatica’ and ‘Jolly’, the latter in cooperation with Roberto Diso.
