I Giganti

I Giganti was a comic series published fortnightly by Fratelli Spada in Italy. A total of 14 issues - divided between "The Phantom" (uneven numbering) and "Mandrake the Magician" (even numbering) - was published from March to October 1967.

General Presentation

Each issue of I Giganti contained also complementary comics such as "Rip Kirby", "Secret Agent X-9", "Tim Tyler's Luck" and "Brick Bradford".

Released in color with a 17 x 24 cm format, each issue contents 80 pages. All the covers were by Mario Caria.

Noteworthy, a translated English text from dialogues of the main story was written below the comics panels.

In France, several stories of this series were released in the last period of the Le Fantôme Spécial issues, but without the English original written text.

In 1968, a second and shorter (6 issues) "I Giganti" series was published by the editor but, this time, featuring comics exclusively inspired from classical books ("The Three Musketeers","Michel Strogoff"...).
