Selected artworks from 'Island Impressions' - published by (Heritage Malta) in collaboration with Wicked Comics.
The first stamp in the series, a shining dragon and a lone soldier preparing for battle, was designed by Malta postman Fabio Agios, a celebrated artist and comedian, co-founder of Malta Comic Con and co-author of The Golden Lizard - Malta's first comic novel.
The second stamp was designed by UK-based Lee Townsend, who has worked with some of the biggest names in comics, and his extensive production has had him design for Marvel, Disney and Dream Works. The Townsend style is largely inspired by the Gardjola at Fort Saint Angelo and there, it kicks off from the fortress with Salima in the background, a red and white muscular Maltese superhero!
Italian-born Mario Torresi is an artist established in the international comic art world and is currently pursuing his dream of working with some of the world's biggest comic publishers. Responsible for the nature who depicts the hunting couple with the grass of phoenix, drawing inspiration from sea, rock, old local costumes and carefree young people all in the face of the scorching sun – Malta Post
