“BD” refers to Franco-Belgian comics, but let's open things up to include ALL Euro comics, especially GN's. Euro-style work from around the world is also welcome!

* BD = "Bandes dessinées"
* BDT = Bedetheque
* GN = graphic novel
* LBK = Lambiek
* LC = "Ligne claire"

I first discovered Marco's art in the pages of Heavy Metal, specifically in the #267 issue from 2014. He's from Pontedera, Italy, and seems to have gotten in to comics via his dad, who lettered Tex.


(from the ~25pp story E.V.A. appearing in HM)

Aside from the fact that he also wrote the story, I was mighty impressed by how well he commanded the city architecture from any number of views, the human figures, and his lovely, somewhat 'electric pastel' color palette.

Turini launched the character "Claudia Poe" online (through Lycos and Dot Com), but she has subsequently appeared in dailies like Il Tirreno, La Nazione, Quotiano and Il Centro, on radio, television (local and MTV) and in a comic book called I Sogni di Claudia (Titivillus/Dot Com edizioni, 2002). In recent years, he has drawn for Miss Italia, Sesso Alieno, Blue and Underground Press. --Lambiek, with edits

Judging by his sites, it looks like he also does work for some American heavyweights:

Looks good! Especially the first three images caught my eye. Thanks for the hint, Mr. E.
