I Vitelloni

In the mid-1970s, Italian publisher Edifumetto released I Vitelloni, a 14-issue series that explored the lives of restless young men adrift in a provincial town. The title, borrowed from Federico Fellini’s classic film, signaled a focus on aimless, often comedic youthful rebellion, rendered in the publisher’s signature blend of drama, humor, and adult themes. While specific creators are not widely credited in English-language sources, the series stands as a distinctive Italian fumetto of its era, capturing a slice of countercultural disillusionment.
