The new show Strappare lungo i bordi (Tear Along the Dotted Line) by Italian artist Zerocalcare is the most bingeable new series on Netflix at just six 15-minute episodes. Zerocalcare, whose real name is Michele Rech, is an Italian cartoonist. His artist name means ‘no limestone’ as he drew inspiration from a TV spot about an anti-scale treatment product.

He began his career at the end of high school, drafting some drawings for the infamous G8 summit in Genoa in July 2001. Since then, he gained increasing popularity, winning national prizes and starting collaborations with newspapers like Internazionale and La Repubblica. Today, the Rome-based Zerocalcare is perhaps the most famous cartoonist in Italy.
