few personal memories ... I loved Alan Ford, for me the abandonment of Magnus was really a shot ... Bunker Magnus wrote that he would have to draw cartoon porn, implying that this was a bad thing.
The output of the Compagnia della Forca (I was a kid, I was 10 years old) caught me off guard, I thought grimly, perhaps for adults, not bought. Each number I saw on sale but I was always a little ... attempted. Taken first to the No 7, "the trulli of the seven wise men", the story very friendly, cheerful. Then "the Panther of the sea", because many key members of the Society are lost (a theme that then goes forward bravely to the end of the comic), and "the black abbot." I was a kid, I said, but what a shame! Annalisa naked! The abbot wanted to rape her ... And then "the emir of the tree dry" where Bran is shown not to be quite an idiot. In short, I was hooked! 
Then my finances were Scarsini: it gave me some change of the older aunts who I visited once a week. His grandfather gave him every now and then something more, maybe $ 500. La Compagnia della Forca cost $ 350, the arrears twice! Plus shipping costs. 6 issues x $ 350 x 2 ... + Shipping cost = capital! A figure
unreachable for me. I decided to steal! I knew where my mom put my wallet, but I did not want seeing it, I took only a few cents time, on Sunday. But my mother was smarter than me and saw it all right. I was "caught" red-handed but the scolding was not so hard, I cried like a fountain, for shame, and she, who knew how much I loved the comics, he decided to demand the arrears immediately. :-)
When Granata Press release reprinting the comics I already knew by heart (at least 10 readings of each book just released, I did so with all the comics, then a reading of the entire collection every 3 or 4 years ...), but I could not fail to buy them all. One day a friend of mine, who knew that I had double, asked me to sell them. Expect his birthday and I gave them to him all together, those of Granata. Then came two little girls in temporary custody, two beautiful sisters, I was 35 years. One of their favorite reading in the evening, before bed, it was the Company of the fork. Bran and puts his feet on the table (in the first issue) has passed into history.
I also bought the reissue Sandwiches, very well done, in fact the only version that I have taken is that of Alexander Distributions, objectively dear. Bran I called my cat, now 12 years old. Use regularly as Goliath and Captain Bertrand nick on the Internet, just waiting for the right occasion to use the name Crocco, because I like a casino.
