Racconti Stellari

A short-lived but visually striking Italian science-fiction anthology, Racconti Stellari ran for 13 issues from 1979 to 1980 under the Publistrip banner. The series is most defined by the painted, atmospheric work of artist Averardo Ciriello, whose covers and interior pages gave each story a distinctive, dreamlike quality. Though brief, it stands as a notable example of late-1970s Italian comics, offering a moody, adult-oriented take on cosmic and speculative tales.
