Antonio di Padova - Un Santo per gli uomini

Since 1980, Edizioni Messaggero Padova has published Antonio di Padova - Un Santo per gli uomini, a single-issue comic biography of the beloved Franciscan saint. With a script by Stelio Martelli and evocative art by the celebrated Dino Battaglia, this graphic work offers a reverent yet humanizing portrait of Saint Anthony's life and miracles. It stands as a notable example of Italian Catholic comics, blending devotional subject matter with the sophisticated visual storytelling of a master illustrator.
