What happens

Alan Ford and the TNT Group vs. Superciuk is an animated short film directed by Max Bunker featuring the members of the TNT Group from the comic Alan Ford. A first, considerably shorter edition was broadcast in 1981 on Rai Due as part of the programme Buonasera con... Supergulp! Expanded to reach its current runtime, it has never been broadcast in full on television and was only distributed on VHS produced by Max Bunker Production (already the producer of Bunker's previous film: Delitti, amore e gelosia), as part of the DVD collection published by La Gazzetta dello Sport in 2010 dedicated to "Comics on TV" and was finally released on a standalone DVD produced by 1000VolteMeglio Publishing in 2013. The film's graphic design was overseen by Paolo Piffarerio. The theme song, titled Alan Ford e il gruppo T.N.T., is sung by Francesco Zitelli. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
