Giorgio Comolo is a professional advertising illustrator born in varallo sesia (Italy) on september 1961.
Among his earlier readings, american super-heroes by the masters of the genre were preminently featured: fantastic four, eternals, hulk, thor, spiderman, x-men, batman were all part of his steady diet. with the appreciation for those larger-than-life stories came a love for the men behind’em: jack kirby above all, and then john romita, gil kane, gene colan, steve ditko and the legendary marvel bullpen in general.
Later in his life, Comolo started discovering non-american comics by the likes of moebius, caza and jimenez and those too made a strong impression on his style, as did the talented jazz players that have been a soundtrack to all those four-colors adventures.
Now, on the side to his official work, Giorgio has started drawing those colorful characters that filled his (and endless other fans’) life, paying homage to the giants that built publishing empires on the strength of their ideas.
