Angelo Stano

Angelo Stano is one of the most distinctive graphic interpreters of Dylan Dog, for whom he created the very first issue. After studying at an art high school, he moved to Milan. His initial forays into comics date back to the mid-seventies, when he met Camillo Conti, director of L'Avventuroso magazine, and drew an adaptation of Jules Verne's novel "From the Earth to the Moon." In 1977, he collaborated with Dardo publishing house for the series "Uomini e guerra." Until 1983, he created "Charlie Charleston" for "Corrier Boy." In 1984, he drew "Viaggio a Matera," later published in 1993 in the "Indigo" albums by R&R Editrice. In 1985, he met Tiziano Sclavi and joined Bonelli, becoming part of the team working on Dylan Dog, for whom he illustrated several episodes and all the covers starting from issue #42, succeeding Claudio Villa. His engagement with Sclavi's narrative world also extended to covers and illustrations for some of his books. In 1993, Stano participated with other artists in the collective work "I volti segreti di Tex" by Edizioni d'Arte Lo Scarabeo, for whom he also drew "I Tarocchi dell'Incubo."
