It was October 19, 2005, when the mayor of Rome inaugurated the first roads of the district Torrino-Mezzocammino. The peculiarity of these pathways, which have emerged in a new neighborhood, which was settled in 2007, is the fact that they are named after great writers who have shaped the history of Italian comics: from Gianluigi Bonelli and Aurelio Galleppini (creators Tex) Giussani sisters (author of Diabolik), by Benito Jacovitti (Cocco Bill, just to mention his most popular) to the unforgettable Hugo Pratt, Corto Maltese dad to so many other great comic book publishing as Tea Bertasi Bonelli, Walter Molino Franco Bonvicini, Sam Phillips, Roberto Raviola (aka Magnus), Rino Albertarelli, Erio Nicolò and many others who, over time, have been named streets and squares, but also avenues, wide, bridges and underpasses. On 20 November 2009, reflecting a project still growing and evolving urban area, which is defining itself as an identity and gaining more and more peculiar, what is now known as the "Neighborhood of the Comic Strip" is enriched Piazza Andrea Pazienza. Not that the place was not already named, since the beginning of the project, one of the most brilliant and influential authors of our national landscape ... Now, however, the Square has acquired its final appearance and absolutely original, being able to produce, on the walls that surround some large mosaic panels, porcelain tile, depicting many of the most famous comic characters in our tradition.
