Me Ne Frego ( I don't give a damn ) was the motto of the fascist militia during the 1930's. Nothing ideological here, I hasten to say: it's just for the fun of playing with graphic symbols.
Anyway, unlike the swastika and nazism, Roman fasces - the origin for the word fascist, of course - aren't considered as specfically refering to fascism in countries with a Latin culture and background and their representation isn't actually forbiden by European laws. If you can find them here and there as ornaments on the facades of buildings and monuments in Paris and other European cities, it's true though, that they haven't been used for such purpose after WWII.

That's great news, Rodolfo. At my own end, a book with my illustrations is going to be published next month, both in English and French. The Sparrow "comic book cover" is featured in it, with full credits to you, of course. I will keep you informed. Lots of work... there's also a video trailer and a website for it. More about the project soon. Best of luck with your own endeavours, my dear Rodolfo. I don't worry: you have the talent and the dedication it takes!

Thank you very much, Rodolfo. The book will be available online soon. I'll let you know. It has been a thrilling project to work about. There is also this film I'm the art director of, based on a story by Jules Verne. Have a look at this other project on the homepage of my DA gallery. Lots on my plate at the moment! I don't have a facebook account - just hate that sort of stuff - but I guess I'll need one because of the book... We can keep in touch through my e-mail address : 3mcstefan@wanadoo.fr I'll be looking forward to hear from you, my friend.
