The Young Fan

In 1997, cartoonist Gipi was just starting his career when he received a letter from a fifteen-year-old fan who, expressing his love for his drawings and stories, asked only for a dedication that read "To Francesco." In 2017, Gipi discovered that this person had done the same thing to many other cartoonists over the course of twenty years, writing the same letter over and over again, always declaring his fifteenth birthday, expressing the same love for each recipient, and asking the same thing of each. With three friends, he then decided to search for the boy.

How to Murder Your Wife

Stanley Ford leads an idyllic bachelor life. He is a nationally syndicated cartoonist whose Bash Brannigan series provides him with a luxury townhouse and a full-time valet, Charles. When he wakes up the morning after the night before - he had attended a friend's stag party - he finds that he is married to the very beautiful woman who popped out of the cake - and who doesn't speak a word of English. Despite his initial protestations, he comes to like married life and even changes his cartoon character from a super spy to a somewhat harried husband.
