Stefano Tamburini

Italian cartoonist born in Rome the 18th of August, 1955 - died on April, 1986 (doubtful if the day of his death was the 20th of the month). His first ideas were published in underground magazines and then in Stampa Alternativa. Then in 1977 with Marco D'Alessandro and Massimo Mattioli created Cannibale, the first Italian magazine of comics on the model of the french Metal Hurlant where the authors were also publishers. On Frigidaire (1980) wroted the stories of his most celebrated comic Ranxerox, but also music reviews with the pseudonym Red Vinile. He also invented several amazing covers and the Snake Agent, a comeback classic American comics, manipulated through the copier. Many of his characters are still today the subject of worship.
