"Being a fan of science fiction, and doing my work almost entirely abroad, I found it enjoyable the idea of returning from Italian readers with a publication of this kind".Davidé Fabbri talking to 'Marcello "Mars" During' about 'Kepher', an Italian comic series he illustrated all the covers for, published by Star Comics in 2012.[3]
