What if… Luke Skywalker has to take care of the old Lord Fener?

lukeavanz2bb.jpg

The epic battles of Star Wars belong to the past and Luke Skywalker has to take care of his old dad, Lord Fener. This is the idea of Alice Socal, Italian comic writer. She produces one of the best interesting things I read in 2011.

‘Luke’ is the name of this small book published by Giuda Edizioni, where our hero spend his time taking care of his old, crippled and gruffy dad, Lord Fener. We can follow the ‘epic’ normal life of Luke, trapped into the family that becomes the place that makes everybody unhappy.

The exhibition of ‘Luke’ is in Ravenna, c\o Galleria Mirada. Opening Saturday 8th October, 9:30 pm.

26th March 2010 Give a book to a stranger

26th March 2010 is the right day for a crazy act: give a book to a stranger.

Metro, train, bus. Take courage with your neighbor, look into his eyes, break the silence and give a book to him.

This is the initiative of Alberto Schiariti, 21 year old from the Italian city of Empoli, who has already collected more than 160,000 supporters on Facebook.

Because breaking the silence between us cannot be only stumbling on the fox tail…

Davide Reviati is comic author, painter and screenwriter born in Ravenna-Italy. He has found the favour with critics and readers with his last graphic novel MORTI DI SONNO (ed. Coconino Press) that describes the life of a group of kids grew up in the Villaggio Anic, a block of the city build for the people who worked in the nearby petrochemical. The sons of the workers spent their childhood in the shadow of the pollution of the factory, between the onset of the heroin and endless games of football.
