Been born in
Italy in years ' 60 from the extraordinary brace of authors
which Max Bunker (the scripteriter Luciano Secchi) and Magnus
(the mourning and greatest designer Roberto Raviola), the
comic strip of Alan Ford and Group T.N.T.
did not have
immediate happening. Two years were necessary in order to
make that the personages of Alan Ford and group T.N.T. personage
entered of right between the most popular and better produced
Italian comic strips in the second half of the ' 900. In
fact its wefts originate them decidedly and umoristiche,
space from the yellow kind to the satira social, what that
renders it only in its kind.
The first
number of the series begins just with the figure of Alan
Ford, an advertising graphical young person, without a Lira
that os erroneously near a store of flowers, where meets
a group of improbable secret agents, these were the members
of "Group T.N.T." (the acronym of the trito one it). After
several vicissitudes, Alan Ford becomes therefore an agent
of the group, wears a sweater perennially and of the black
pants it is blond and it has the blue eyes, it is decidedly
beautifulst of the group, also why the others members of
the unhinged band are of the true and own caricature. Alan
Ford is also much timid and bungler, this because of its
provverbiale shyness that ago to blush above all of forehead
to some beautiful girl, than most times succeeds in he trick
as she wants. In spite of everything Alan Ford tries to carry out
its job with determination and passion, what that a lot
often the door to be involved itself in situations and intrigues
very larger than he.
The
friend and connects inseparable of Alan Ford is agent Bob
Rock, mark from a big nose and one low stature, garment
perennially with one cape and a red cap to the Shelock Holmes .
The friend of Alan Ford is always much nervous one and has
an easy irritable character, this because of its strong
complexes of inferiorities, which had to its physical characteristics.
In its temperament the old Donald Duck remembers a lot way,
that one in order to mean to us, of To the Tagliaferro.
Alan Ford and Bob Rock, often and gladly are made to help
from a dog from the very good scent: Cirano, an enormous
Italian hound.
The head of Group T.N.T. is the Number a One, old ultracentenarian (the age still
is not specified) that even if paralyzed in the inferior
limbs, is still active and polishes, the true operating
mind of the shabby group. He has a beard the longest white
woman, and is mark from two large hat forelocks on sides. He turns perennially
on
a
wheelchair and always has in fist a stick that the servants
more in order to take to blows the distracted members of
the group, than for other. The Number One also is feared
from all for of its bad temper. It lives in the secret shelter
that on the back of the store of flowers. The skillful arm
of the Number One is a gentelman on the called sessantina
Cariatide, these are the vice-head and manage a store
d
the flowers. It has grizzled hats and it wears always
one scarf on the neck, shelter of its inseparable little
cavy Squitty. Cariatide makes to help in the sale of the flowers
from omits bare and toothless, from the delicate health,
always to taken with some cold or ailment, these is Geremia,
that it carries out also the employee duties and scribbler.
One of the more active persons of the group is sure
the German Eight Grunf, to he must the eccentric inventions
that they serve to the group in order to help them in some
adventure. Eight Grunf garment as a aviator and perennially
has a helmet in head with of the goggles. One of the more
"wide awake" agents is without doubt
the Conte Oliver, a species of Arsenio Lupin,
than it is amused to steal nearly like if sport were be
a matter of one. Small bomb wears always one, an eyeglass
and a pair of side-whisker. In the group there is also a
most likeable called parrot Clodoveo. The enemy number one
of group T.N.T. and of Alan Ford it is without doubt one
of the character more originates them and simpati us of
the Italians comics: Superciuk, a bandit alcoholic who ago
the Robin Hood to the contrary, steals to the poor ones
for giving the rich ones. Garment like a superhero, with
a red cape and a mask on the head and is supplied of many
makes up , but its deadlier secret arm is its terrible superbreath,
when it comes captured from the bunglers Alan Ford and Bob
Rock, enough that Superciuk the breaths the face that these
swoon. Alan Ford and group T.N.T. has known a great popolarity
in Italy in 1978 as a result of the most famous one (and
never forgotten) television transmission "Supergulp, comic
strips in tv", the acronym of opening of the cardboard was
very amusing.
In this headed group it was to the taken ones with
the ill-famed Gommaflex, the bandit from the rubber face.
Although the Italian comic strip does not cross more
