BIO
Valeria “Tenaga” Romanazzi
Valeria Romanazzi, known artistically as “Tenaga,” is born in Apulia in 1984. She breaks into the comic book industry in 2006 as an assistant colorist for Marvel, contributing to high-profile titles such as Mighty Avengers and Avengers: The Initiative. She goes on to work as a colorist for prominent Italian series, including Dragonero (Sergio Bonelli Editore), Dylan Dog Color Fest, and the Geronimo Stilton comic books. Her career then expands into the Franco-Belgian market, where she collaborates with leading publishing houses such as Dupuis, Ankama, Dargaud, Soleil, and Glénat. In addition to her mainstream work, she develops an extensive background in independent comics. Since 2008, she creates various self-published books as a complete author—handling the story, art, colors, and lettering—and wins the prestigious "Best Self-Production" award at Lucca Comics & Games 2014. With a strong affinity for adventure, sci-fi, and fantasy, she works primarily as a penciler, regular artist, and colorist for both the American and French markets.
