The nickname "Innovari" (meaning innovation or renewal in Latin) has been with me since I came across Syd Mead's prototype car design of the same name in his wonderful book "Sentinel." This work, with its air of "a new era of design"—along with the works of many SF and fantasy illustrators (such as Chris Foss, Peter Elson, Angus McKie, Chris Moore, Jim Burns, and Fred Gambino)—drove me over the years to do my own artwork.
"Fantastic fiction" always had a remarkable weight in my whole personal and professional life. I have been a professional SF author, I edited a fantasy and horror movie magazine, and for ten years have been chief modelmaker in my own special effects company.
In the last decade my creativity has leaned towards computer graphics and 3D illustrations in particular—with which I wanted to create professional artworks for books and magazines. I'm happy to say that in recent years this objective has been fulfilled, with many works sold worldwide to private and corporate clients.
Currently I'm building my worlds in Bologna, Italy, where I share a home with my wife Raffaella and our cats Leeloo and Merlin.

Pretty funny. Next you should do one on European neo-nazism and anti-immigration sentiment. That'd be a gas.

Not to mention they always complain about paying so much for gas. But they are cool. I was overeseas when everyone in the USA got SUV's never understood the whole appeal. Looks like a station wagon drives liek a truck.

Imagine this: if we boycott gasoline for ONE DAY, Prices WILL drop. Now imagine downgrading to smaller vehicles....

Ehi, are they all so picky on the other side of the ocean ??? Nice one on the subject... another one on the true reasons they' re declared war to Iraq...???

Good one. Maybe you could take that "IT Conquered the World" image and replace the alien with George Bush? Perhaps dress him like an emperor too? :P

Is difficult to talk about the rope in the house of the hanged... ;)

Especially when uninited houseguests are dancing on the grave before the execution.

Isn't it amazing? They let us buy SUVs and then squeal like stuck pigs when we use them. Great comic strip btw!

Fantastic! Those are great balls LOL I can't believe I said that. Great comic Duo!

Duo, keep reminding us that we've got some incredibly stupid habits over here. Frankly, I am glad to see SUV owners once or twice a week ruing they day they bought those land-tanks.
duo
@DavidEMartin we have SUVs in Europe too (so we have stupid habits too) but not too much as in US... our cars in average have half (or less) power than the average US cars, this is because from always the oil here cost much more than in US (on today more than $7.00 USD a gallon)...

Duo, nice comic, but if those are supposed to be American balls, you need to work on the English a bit. "Joe, why don't we drive compact cars or car pool?" "Because it is ..... " The rest of it is fine. But it loses its impact a little with the incorrect usage.

What I think is funny is how people in SUVs and trucks now drive slower just to "save" gas. If they really wanted to save on gas, they should drive something more economical to begin with. Also some people seem to think they're more important or something if they can command a "better" view of the road while blocking the view of others. shrug I just use my more nimble sedan to zip around them. :P Oh yeah, the English does need some work.
