The bestselling series SEX & HORROR celebrates the publishing phenomenon known as "fumetti sexy," Italian adult comics with a unique take on such genres as horror, crime, fantasy, history, and fairy tales. Wilder and weirder than you can imagine, they were some of the most outrageous and shocking comics ever produced. One of the most notorious of the cover artists was Roberto Molino, whose artworks often parodied the popular TV shows and films of the day, including KOJAK (Kondor), THE BIONIC WOMAN (Bionika), and RAMBO (Raimbo). This book brings together some of the sexiest and most provocative examples of his work, which is highly coveted by collectors today. Hardcover, 9-in. x 10-in., 160 pages, full color.
