Description

Long a cult favorite among lustful cognoscenti the world over (and a legend in his native Italy), Niso Ramponi a.k.a. Kremos (a pseudonym adopted when freelance work done while in the army ran afoul of military regulations) is one of the greatest cheesecake pin-up cartoonists who ever laid pen to paper. Now renowned collector and editor Craig Yoe (who introduced many American readers to Kremos in his feature on the man in the 2007 Arf Forum) has delved deep into his own collection to produce this exceptional collection of Kremos' finest work. Yoe will be providing an historical overview of Kremos' career (including such titillating tidbits as his collaborations with one Federico Fellini), as well as some little-seen and unique pieces (including photos of "il maestro" and rare sketches), but the bulk of Bella Donna will be composed of page after page of Kremos' gorgeous, sexy and hilarious full-color cartoons (gloriously reproduced to Fantagraphics' exacting standards), with newly translated captions. Bella Donna is the latest volume in Fantagraphics' series of best-selling books devoted to classic pin-up cartooning, including An Orgy of Playboy's Eldon Dedini, The Glamour Girls of Bill Ward, and the "Humorama" series.
