Better known to readers by his pseudonym Casty, Andrea began writing and drawing stories featuring Mickey and Donald at the age of ten, embellishing them with splendid covers made using his colorful collection of pastels.
Once finished, “the comics” would be “rented” to friends, but only for a very short time and for a suitable fee. This gave him the idea that perhaps writing comics could become a career in the future.
After earning his diploma as an “art teacher,” he sent his work to a long list of publishers and soon began working regularly with Silver’s Acme, creating a long series of Cattivik and Lupo Alberto comic strips that enjoyed ever-growing success.
The time was ripe to fulfill his old dream of writing for Topolino, and in 2002 he began working with the editorial team. His plots are gripping, and his style unmistakable.
His Mickey Mouse, a little shy and vulnerable, yet generous and determined to help those who are bullied, recalls Romano Scarpa’s version, which Casty freely draws inspiration from.
Andrea was born in Gorizia on April 23, 1967, and has always lived in Gradisca d’Isonzo, surrounded by the greenery of Friuli.
