MV Agusta developed the project with Scuola Internazionale di Comics di Reggio Emilia.Academy of Visual Arts and New Media, one of Italy’s most prominent comic schools.

The concept is based on a series of short stories that tell the MV Agusta tale in a fresh.Engaging way, inspired partly by the noir tradition and partly by motorsports comic heroes from the 1970s.

The personality of the bikes featured in the different episodes, and matching riders.Comes out very strongly as the chosen media allows for the most daring plots and spectacular sets.

“To capture new audiences and venture into new markets.You have to keep an open mind and must not be afraid of doing things differently.

MV Agusta is currently expanding its customer base and entering new segments of our industry.

This comic series is a small revolution in the way we have traditionally communicated our brand.

It is also an evolution since the new narrative around our latest models comes.Aimed at the younger generation bikers and appeals to a more mature clientele.

The eight characters chosen to appear in the comic represent. The augmented embodiment of our fans’ aspirations for their respective MV Agusta models.

But apart from any branding and marketing considerations. These stories are fun to read. Well written and superbly drawn.

I am sure MV Agusta fans around the world will enjoy them. And feel part of a broader community that extends beyond borders and social boundaries.”
