Republish these my loving thoughts on the environment and colleague (and teacher first!) Pini Mark , already appeared in the queue to my long interview posted on this blog in August last year. I do this for mentioning (and celebrating) the birth of a blog dedicated to him, which found the address in the links on the side. Happy reading!
There are many cartoon characters that have filled my life and stirred up strong emotions in me, most or almost forgotten. In short order, Akim, Pecos Bill, Buck Danny, The Unknown Knight, Capitan Miki. In addition to all of The Brat: Little Eva, Superbone, Fiordistella and, above all, the original, Narciso divertentisssimo Putiferio Corbella. So many characters and, consequently, many authors. But I was only a "conquered" in depth and indelibly marked, this is Mark Pines, a few years ago illustrator of Zagor. At that time, however, did not work for Bonelli: his publisher was ... himself. He wrote stories and drew a steady stream, churning out character after another, Jungle King by tarzanidi as riders disguised as Ringo, the "telenovela" Tim and western Ox I definitely fell in love with the author. This man who did everything himself, creating and editing his own works, for me had something special. In adulthood, I became a cartoonist, I got to know and sometimes I hear the phone. Maybe not a great artist, and maybe forget the world of comics (he has done?) Without taking too much punishment, but for me it was the most important, even the only one. As a cartoonist I think you owe him, for better or for worse, whatever they are. So thanks, chaotic, generous, for me legendary Pini Mark!
