The Prize

Stunning board printed and signed by the talented Italian cartoonist Stefano Biglia.

In 1989 Biglia attended the Chiavari school of comics, where he met Renzo Calegari, the author with whom he created two noir stories and led him to create numerous stories for Il Giornalino. In 1994 he joined Sergio Bonelli Editore. In January of the same year "Zeke Colter's Ballad" was published, a Tex adventure that Biglia drew together with Calegari and Luigi Copello. The texts were by Claudio Nizzi and the story appeared in the "Almanacco del West". Following this experience, Biglia joined the Nick Raider design team. After three stories drawn together with Copello (the first of which was entitled Nobody is innocent, written by Nizzi and published in issue 84 in May 1995), he produced a solo issue published in February 1998 (Un delitto inexplicabile, texts by Alfredo Nogara).

Later he became an illustrator for Magico Vento, making his debut drawing "The mask of the cannibal god" (texts by Gianfranco Manfredi, nº 28 in October 1999) and for which he worked until 2010. Again with Manfredi, he worked on the boards for a new character created by the Milan-based writer Shanghai Devil with his story published in Color Tex n. 4.

The Cause

Among the various activities that we have planned for the biennium 2017/18, there is the Pet Therapy, for children and people with disabilities, but also for adults or older people who want to find an inner balance.

The therapeutic value of the relationship with animals friends is now recognized by the science. The Alchemist a no-profit Association of Social Promotion and Culture, believes that, especially cats and rodents can allow children and adults with difficulties temporary or chronic social relationship, to improve their quality of life and to be able to regain their inner balance, in order to better address the everyday life or health.

We are only at the beginning, in the most delicate phase: to raise funds through events, public auctions and more, in order to operate on the territory of Pescara. We very believe in this project and we also believe that the Pet Therapy should be accessible free of charge.
