Anita
“Input Anita”
pencil and story: Guido Crepax
Anita is an employee and leads a normal life.
Her manager gives her the task of choosing the new owner of the sales office, analyzing the data entered in a questionnaire by the candidates.
Anita carries out the assignment in solitude, on her home computer, where she can indulge her fantasies.
During the night her dreams are obsessed with the computer and her assignment, strangely taking pleasure.
The next day she works all day on the characteristics of the candidates, restless, continuing to dress and undress.
The dreams of the second night are more vivid and take the form of the candidate of the blue card, with whom Anita ends up making love.
On the third day Anita decides to work naked and receives the (dreamlike) visit of the candidate of the white ballot.
The woman possesses her morbidly, followed immediately after by other candidates, more violent and perverse.
Anita ends up being "killed" by the last candidate, exhausted from work or pleasure.
Like all Crepax stories, sex is only hinted at, never explicit, making the representation even more exciting.
However, this story is more direct than the previous ones, like Valentina, thanks to a more permissive censorship at the end of the 1980s.
The use of colors is sporadic, delicate, artistic.

Zapping becomes chaotic at this point: sports, dramas, horror movies ...
A spectacular roundup of lovers and monsters, ready to satisfy Anita's perverse fantasies.
Eventually, exhausted, Anita takes the colors of her virtual lovers, becoming multicolored.
Guido Crepax uses the screen to offer a roundup of characters dear to him, including sports champions.
