Tito Faraci (born Luca Faraci, on 23 May 1965) is an Italian comics writer and editor, as well as novelist. Faraci is most notably known for his work on Mickey Mouse, as published on 'Topolino', the Italian weekly digest devoted to Disney comics. Faraci debuted in comics in the middle of the nineties. Although his very first script was for a Donald Duck story, he quickly gained fame as an inventive and innovative Mickey Mouse writer. His Disney stories mix absurd humour and a deep human touch, while borrowing atmospheres from pulp movies and noir literature. Many of his stories have been drawn by famous artist Giorgio Cavazzano. The two have also collaborated outside of Disney, for instance on a Marvel's Spider-Man one-shot. Faraci is nowadays a veteran comic book writer, having wrote for years for a number of mainstream Italian series, most notably Tex and Diabolik. His first novel, titled La vita in generale, appeared in 2015. Italian bio: Tito Faraci è nato a Gallarate nel 1965. È uno dei più importanti sceneggiatori italiani di fumetti. Ha creato storie per “Topolino” (Giorgio Cavazzano è stato – come usa dire lui stesso – il suo mentore), “Dylan Dog”, “Tex”, “Diabolik”, “Magico Vento”, tra gli altri, ed è stato uno dei primi scrittori italiani a lavorare anche per personaggi di fumetti americani come Spider-Man, Devil e Capitan America. Per la Disney ha sceneggiato Novecento di Alessandro Baricco, dando al protagonista la fisionomia di Pippo. Per Feltrinelli ha pubblicato il romanzo La vita in generale (2015), la sceneggiatura dell’albo a fumetti Le entusiasmanti avventure di Max Middlestone e del suo cane alto trecento metri (con Sio; 2016; nuova edizione: 2018), Il pesce di lana e altre storie abbastanza belle (alcune anche molto belle, non tante, solo alcune) di Maryjane J. Jayne (con Sio; 2018) e, nella collana Feltrinelli Comics, la graphic novel di Alessandro Baricco, Senza sangue (2019; con Francesco Ripoli).

Andrea Castellan (born 23 Avril 1967), better known by the pen name Casty, is an Italian comic book writer and artist, mostly recognised for his contribution to the character of Mickey Mouse. Casty debuted in 1995, working on the Italian humour comic series Cattivik and Lupo Alberto. Since 2003, he has been writing Mickey Mouse comics for the Italian weekly digest Topolino. Starting from 2006, he has also drawn most of his Disney stories. Casty is regarded by many as the best Mickey Mouse cartoonist of his generation. His work mixes humour, adventure and suspense, along the lines of past Mickey masters Floyd Gottfredson and Romano Scarpa. His stories sometimes contain vintage sci-fi aesthetics and social themes, such as environmentalism.

Silvia Ziche (born 5 July 1967) is an Italian cartoonist. Ziche debuted in 1991. She has devoted much of her work to Disney comics, as published in the Italian weekly digest Topolino. Her style, round and comical, injects cartoony vibes into the tradition of Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck comics. Besides Disney, Ziche's comics and vignettes have appeared in a number of Italian magazines, like Linus and Cuore. Her most famous original creation is Lucrezia, a humorous series exploring the funny side of modern womanhood. Her latest graphic novel is the autobiographical La Gabbia ('The Cage', 2022).

Francesco Artibani (born 27 October 1968) is an Italian comics writer, most notably known for his work on Disney comics. Artibani originally studied animation. He debuted in comics in 1992, scripting an Uncle Scrooge story for the Italian weekly Disney comics magazine 'Topolino'. Besides writing stories for Topolino, since the 90's Artibani contributed to various innovative comic projects from Disney Italia, such as PKNA, MMMM and W.I.T.C.H. He is also the co-creator of the Monster Allergy comics series.
