Mondo Erotica: The Art of Baldazzini

Plot

This landmark collection of the acclaimed Italian comic book artist Roberto Baldazzini is a spectacular showcase of the outrageous and provocative work he has written and illustrated over the past three decades, such as Casa Howard (which recounts the sexual adventures of the transsexual residents of an apartment block) and Chiara Rosenberg (in which a meek housewife finds her dominant side). Also featured are his pin-ups, gallery work, and drawings of Bettie Page. This is a collection to excite the interest of comic book fans everywhere.

Roberto Baldazzini is an Italian comic book writer and artist renowned for his graphic line work. He came to prominence with the publication of Stella Norris in 1984, a strip that continued to 1992. From 1995 he began focusing on erotic comics with such works as Trans Est, Chiara Rosenberg, and Casa Howard. His visceral, but elegant, black and white style led him to become a regular guest artist in several international magazines, such as Glamour, Blue, Diva, Penthouse Comix, and Geisha.
