    paper 170 Pages of Monsters

    This is a self-published anthology comic developed in collaboration with Ratto Collettivo, a collective of emerging Italian artists. The volume explores the theme of monsters, each introduced through a dedicated illustration and an opening text that precedes the comic story centered on that character. I oversaw the coordination of 28 contributing artists and managed the complete layout of the publication. I also contributed an original Gargoyle illustration and wrote the script for its accompanying comic story.
