>>153573646Issue 50: It's Magical Anyway CoverArt by Giada PerissinottoColors by Andrea Cagol
>>153573759Well, technically some side stuff that was in issue 50.Art for this sidestory is by Paolo Campinoti.
>>153573772
>>153573783I'm not sure, but I think this was just a short introduction to a section that was basically all text and pictures about the staff behind the series.
>>153573799But Issue 50 also had this.
>>153573814Art by Davide Baldoni, who made his first appearance in Issue 41, but will be staying for the whole run.Stefania Santi, the colorist here will mostly work as a colorist on one pagers with WE.
>>153573851Art by Graziano Barbaro. His first issue was issue 4, and he stayed on for the first two arcs.
>>153573867Federico Bertolucci made his first apperance with issue 9, and will stay on until issue 84.
>>153573882Paolo Campinoti started on Issue 6 and will last all the way until the end of the series. He also did plenty of the side specials and other side material. May well be the WITCH artist with the highest amount of output.
>>153573931Monica Catalano doesn't draw that many issues, but she does a few between 45 and 89. Also a decent amount of side material.
>>153573953Ettore Gula came aboard on Issue 10 and will leave just before Arc 7: New Power
>>153573968Correction, Gula does issues past issue 100.
>>153573968Interesting misspelling of his name here, but this is by Francesco Legramandi, the guy who took over the color direction duties for the comic once Canepa left.I think he sticks around from issue 8 to the end of the series.
>>153574040Alessia Martusciello also began at issue 8. I think she sticks around until the end of this arc.
>>153574073Elisabetta Melaranci doesn't do that many issues, but worked on some between issue 34 and 100.
>>153574086Anna Merli seems to not have worked on that many WITCH things overall(not credited for much at least) - mostly specials and extras like calendars. She did however end up working together with Barbara Canepa on END.
>>153574120Gianluca Paniello was one of the artists on Issue 3 of the comic, and lasts until the end of the Ragorlang Arc.
>>153574146Giada Perissinotto is a personal favorite.She was doing side material that was coming out during the first arc, but her first issue on the main series was issue 17. She'll last all the way to the end.She does the vast majority of the covers for the series.
>>153574169Another favorite: Manuela Razzi.She worked in Issue 2 alongside Barbucci, and stays on for basically the entire series.
>>153574210Giovanni Rigano is odd in that I can only find any proper credits for him doing issue 15. He might have done more, though.
>>153574229Claudio Sciarrone seems to have done a few issues here and there, often together with Alberto Zanon.Sciarrone is probably more associated with his ducks, since he not only did a lot of Duck stuff including PKNA, but also pinup collection Ugly Ducklings. Even got his duck girls into Playboy magazines...
>>153574257Flavia Scuderi seems to have come aboard at issue 46, and sticks around until at least issue 89.
>>153574263Donald Soffritti was the inker on the very first issue(which was drawn by Barbucci) and drew a few issues of Arc 1. He did not stay on past the first arc, though.
>>153574302Stefano Turconi drew issue 7 of the comic, but as far as I can tell then didn't draw much for the series until Arc 4 or so...
bump
>>153574323Daniela Vetro worked on issue 3 with Paniello, and would not only stay until the end, but draw one of the comics in the final issue of the series.
>>153574351And the last one in this gallery, by Alberto Zanon.Zanon worked on issues as early as 36, and stays on for the rest of the series. Does quite a few covers.

>>153573882>Federico Bertolucciname looks familar, ah, he was the artist for Brindille, written by Frédéric Brrémaud, storytime: https://desuarchive.org/co/thread/143077354
>>153577144What makes you say that?
>>153577773
>>153577144>>153577983Right, why?
>>153572541not sure I like the art in this one. The facial expressions feels very, lacking or unanimated compared to previous issues.
>>153573534>Why didn't you talk to me about your hobby so I could tell you I wouldn't allow you to spend time doing it
>>153579171Imagine wanting to spend time together(Taranee proves later she doesn't).Imagine actually communicating(Taranee didn't).Nigel literally comes around after being emotional, too: >>153576696Meanwhile, imagine blatantly ditching your boyfriend during a date for your crush of a month or so just because you think he's hot.
>>153573759>>153574302Well, it's true that's bit pity that wasn't present, or at least being in a mention the original creators trio in a highlighting framing magazine's issue like this one; or maybe I missed a hint at least.
>>153575426It's very pleasant this kind of artistic pinups... All are good, but in a personal chart:1.- Irma,Hay Lin2.-Cornelia,Will,Taranee...Something I want to mention, and couldn't avoid, is a feeling that some of the card images are edited after a rather coarse search, but the indagation was accurate; although I admit the picture resolution is good... And well, do you know if this picture is from the American edition?
>>153579658>Imagine your girlfriend not focussing 100% on youNigel is an attention seeking child and throws tantrums when Taranee isn't giving him her entire focus
>>153581498Nigel got over it and only gets mad again when she actively goes out of her way to ditch him.Taranee actively ditches her boyfriend for another guy while on a date.Nigel's a bit of an ass, but Taranee is way worse in this arc. Nigel's worst behaviour was in the earlier arcs.>Imagine your girlfriend not focussing 100% on youNot what he asked for either, not remotely.
Is it wrong that I find comic Irma more attractive than her show counter part?
