Giancarlo Berardi
Nasce a Genova il 15 novembre 1949. Esordisce come sceneggiatore all'inizio degli anni Settanta su Horror e Sorry, già in rapporto di amicizia e di collaborazione con Ivo Milazzo.
Dopo aver scritto alcune avventure di Tarzan e di Diabolik crea, insieme a Milazzo, Tiki per Il Giornalino e Welcome to Springville, una serie western disegnata da Milazzo e da Renzo Calegari sulle pagine di Skorpio. Nel 1977, sempre insieme a Milazzo, dà vita a Ken Parker, un personaggio western decisamente innovativo.
In seguito i due autori creano Marvin, un ex attore del cinema muto che fa il detective nella Hollywood degli anni Trenta, e Tom, un uomo dal passato misterioso che ora gestisce un piccolo bar di periferia.
Scrive anche alcune storie di Sherlock Holme

"MacLean’s writing is lyrical, ebbing and flowing like a deep riptide that conceals the danger beneath; there is something unsavory and even panic-inducing about being pulled inside his tale. . . A dizzying and delirious meditation on desire, violence, guilt, and philosophical justification."
The book will be on sale in early July.

Keith Giffen
Keith Ian Giffen was an American comic book illustrator and writer. He is possibly best-known for his long runs illustrating, and later writing the Legion of Super-Heroes title in the 1980s and 1990s. He also created the alien mercenary character Lobo (with Roger Slifer), and the irreverent "want-to-be" hero, Ambush Bug. Giffen is known for having an unorthodox writing style, often using characters in ways not seen before. His dialogue is usually characterized by a biting wit that is seen as much less zany than dialogue provided by longtime collaborators DeMatteis and Robert Loren Fleming. That approach has brought him both criticism and admiration, as perhaps best illustrated by the mixed (although commercially successful) response to his

Alan Bennett is an English author and Tony Award-winning playwright. Bennett's first stage play, Forty Years On, was produced in 1968. Many television, stage and radio plays followed, along with screenplays, short stories, novellas, a large body of non-fictional prose and broadcasting, and many appearances as an actor. Bennett's lugubrious yet expressive voice (which still bears a slight Leeds accent) and the sharp humour and evident humanity of his writing have made his readings of his own work (especially his autobiographical writing) very popular. His readings of the Winnie the Pooh stories are also widely enjoyed. -
