- toyg 6y agoSadly Alan Ford was never translated for UK and US. Maybe Secchi thought it could have been perceived as offensive, or that they didn't stand a chance against the anglo powerhouses (bigger Italian comic publishers tried and failed to crack those markets over the years). Considering Secchi's personality towards fandom (he was grumpy at 50, I can only imagine how he is at 82), I don't think there will be any real push to expand publications anytime soon. Their web presence is a basic shopify store. It seems silly in the age of the web, but this business in Italy is very "artisanal".
