    2. Wow! Great finds you got there! And now, cover to cover:
      Ravioli Uestern: Very funny, but I try to post only printed covers.
      Nathan Never: I´m not sure about this one. Have you read somewhere if Castellinni wanted to do an homage?
      Napoleone: That one is great, but it seems the page is down, and searching the net, I have found only very low-res pics.

      Thanks again!

    3. Ravioli: ok!

      N.Never:NN & DD share the same publisher (and Napoleone too), and after the huge success of DD, making a cover with "menacing hands" in it was considered a harbinger of good luck for a newborn comic book.

      Look here for a "techno-tentacle" version (same publisher again): http://vendofumetti.altervista.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/leg0001.jpg

      and here (same again): http://www.mercatinodelfumetto.it/gea_bonelli_vendo-gea-completa-1-18/7687/71.htm

      Napoleone: the story is an homage to DD made by the author, the cover too.... http://www.nonsolomanga.it/bonelli/napoleone_intro.htm

      and:
      http://morenoburattini.blogspot.it/2011/03/intervista-dylan-dog.html (look for Baldo)

      and: http://www.mercatinodelfumetto.it/dylan-dog_bonelli_dylan-dog-cartonato-mondadori/1740/44.htm

      keep up the good work!!!

    1. Yeah, it looks like the "menacing hands" were a succesful thing back in the 90´s.
