Procopio is the title character of an eponymous Italian comic strip series created by Lino Landolfi. The comic started in 1951 in the comics magazine Il Vittorioso, where it was published until the close of the magazine in the late sixties. Procopio debuted as a squire of a medieval knight. The author was later able to make it a polyvalent character, who plays many different roles, with the artifice of a modern Procopio, which tells of the adventures of his ancestors (all called Procopio and all with the same characteristics and traits).
