About the series

Published by Torelli from 1949 to 1950, Carnera was a 46-issue comic series centered on the real-life heavyweight boxing champion Primo Carnera. Blending sports action with the larger-than-life persona of its Italian star, the series captured the post-war fascination with pugilism and celebrity. Most closely associated with its publisher and the era's adventure-comics style, Carnera stands as a compact but energetic artifact of early Italian comic book history.
