THIEVES & DETECTIVES

DIABOLIK: An anti-hero featured in Italian comics
Inspired by: Italian & French pulp fiction characters

Diabolik is a ruthless master thief. He typically steals from criminals (and has no issue with killing them if need be, but rarely, if ever, kills the innocent or the police). He has a set of life-like masks which he uses to fool his opponents, assuming every identity at his will. He seems to have a deep knowledge in many scientific fields, including chemistry, mechanics and computers. In his first appearance, Diabolik was a more straightforward villain who did not hesitate to murder anyone in order to accomplish his deeds. He was later given a more Robin Hood-like persona and was shown stealing essentially from criminals, in order to soften the series’ violence and amorality.
