His career in comics began in 2001 with his collaboration with the German publisher Avant-Verlag on the magazine Plaque. He then moved to Berlin, where he worked until 2005 as cartoonist, illustrator and architect.

Both author and publisher (Andrea Alberghini and Iker Gil, Editor in Chief) have kindly granted us the permission to republish the article and the images. “ Images Come First“, by architect Andrea Alberghini, was originally published in the magazine MAS Context #20 “Narrative” (and later in Italian in the online magazine Fumettologica, under the title “ Manuele Fior e l’architettura: una conversazione“). The following interview was given by Manuele Fior to Andrea Alberghini, editor of Comic Metropolis, a very recommended Italian blog dedicated to the relationships between comics, narrative and architecture, and we believe it represents a good introduction to the artistic sensibility of the Italian cartoonist. This background is the more and more visible in his stories, as the author is trying to channel his interest in architecture and urban development into his personal narrative. Author of many successful graphic novels, Fior has studied architecture and even worked as an architect for some years before entirely dedicating to comics. It is a long time that we wanted to publish the work of Italian comic artist, illustrator (and friend) Manuele Fior. ( MAS Context #20 “Narrative”, Winter 2013, available in pdf here.)
