Bianconi has been, for at least twenty years, one of the most important and prolific publishers of Italian comics for boys. Grandma Abelard, Geppo, Mites, Popeye, Puppy, Provolino, Vulpecula, Bongo, Pinocchio are just a few of the many characters that appeared on his head. An immense wealth that threatens to go forgotten, especially by younger generations who have never read stories. Working on writing some files of the Collection "Comics in 3D" in the Hobby & Work, I have read and reread many of his books and I came across the very rich book "The Valley of the comics (Publisher The Stylus), which collects cards character, author interviews and many pictures. I think it is the only essay that attempts to sketch a picture of that production, and fix it on paper before its characters have disappeared. I advise everyone to read and I hope that others in the field will be published.
