Marco Cosimo D'Amico was born in Rome in 1976. Following his university studies in scientific engineering, he dedicated himself to his two real passions: comic books (as a member of the International Comic Book School in Rome) and aikido. In 2008, he wrote his first book, "Moksha, " illustrated by Roberto Ricci and published by Editions Laffont. He followed that up in 2016 with "Le Coeur de l'ombre" published by Dargaud ("The Heart of Shadows, " Europe Comics), illustrated by Roberto Ricci and Laura Iorio.
Laura Iorio was born in 1982 in Frosinone, in central Italy.
From a young age, she discovered her love for drawing, and knew that one day she would become either a jazz singer or an artist. In the end, art won out. Following her studies at the International School of Comic Books in Rome, she debuted in 2009 alongside Roberto Ricci and Giancarlo Dimaggio with "June Christy" (Editions BD-Music), a story about a jazz singer. In 2016 she completed a second collaboration with Roberto Ricci, along with writer Marco Cosimo D'Amico, "Le Coeur de l'ombre" (Dargaud; "The Heart of Shadows, " Europe Comics), winner of the Silver Award at the International Manga Awards in 2017.
In 2023, she worked with Cédric Mayen and Roberto Ricci on the colorful "L'Arc-en-Cieliste" (Dargaud; Europe Comics in English). Born in Rome in 1976, Roberto Ricci studied music for eight years before an injury stopped him in his tracks. It was then that he decided to enroll at the International School of Comics in Rome to become an artist. Upon graduation, he started publishing short stories in the American magazine "Heavy Metal, " and by the early 2000s he'd begun collaborating with Philippe Saimbert on the award-winning series "Les âmes d'Helios" (Delcourt).
Following that, he undertook several different projects, including "Moksha" (Laffont), "Delta, " (Humanoïdes associés), and "June Christy" (Editions BD Music). Most recently, he has completed the graphic novel "Le Coeur de l'ombre, " alongside Marco Cosimo d'Amico and Laura Iorio, published by Dargaud ("The Heart of Shadows, " Europe Comics).
