Fratelli Spada stories by by Tullo Palasciano
It looks like he was using a Light table or a kind of Opaque projector like an art-o-graph in making his art work, lifting art from McCoy and others. However, with a bit of a personal touch. In many panels he uses long parallel lines with a lot of air in between to create a halftone effect in empty areas.
