I don't know how it works in other countries, but in France we have shops called Tabac/Presse or press kiosks where we can buy cigarettes, magazines, newspapers, lottery tickets, and many other items.
In the 1980s, adult magazines and pocket books with suggestive covers were also found on rotating display stands.

It was in the newspaper kiosk in my neighbourhood that one day I caught a glimpse of this sublime drawing, this marvel: on the cover of this Fumetti (Italian comic book), a woman stood proudly, dressed in a harness, leather panties and bra, straps and metal buckles. Holding a whip firmly in her leather-gloved hands, she wore a hood that gave her a mysterious and threatening look. The outfit was completed by a pair of thigh-high boots (marvelous)! At her feet lies a man, chained and whipped until he bleeds.
The quintessence of a brutal and merciless dominatrix.

This painting, by artist Roberto Molino, illustrates the cover of a Fumetti comic book, Bionika - I Prostituti (1984, published by Edifumetto).
Having only spent a few seconds looking at the illustration, I unfortunately did not remember the title of the comic book. All I had left was a vivid memory of this drawing.
It was only recently, 40 years later, thanks to the magic of the Internet, that I rediscovered this magnificent illustration.

There is not much information available about this artist, Roberto Molino. He was born in Milan in 1941 into a family of artists. He began his career as an advertising illustrator, then as a storyboard artist for television commercials.
In the 1970s and 1980s, he created over 100 covers for comic book publisher Edifumetto, whose comics often parodied popular television series and films of the time, such as Kojak (Kondor), The Bionic Woman (Bionika) and Rambo (Raimbo). These stories were very popular at the time, mixing eroticism and horror with humour.
His name appears in a list of artists who worked for the Italian publisher Edifumetto, such as Leone Frollo with Yra the Vampire and Snow White, and Magnus with his famous Necron.
Roberto Molino passed away in 2004.

I hope you enjoyed reading this. Sorry if the translation seems a bit clumsy, I'm using a translation tool.
