Marco Rota started his career in 1958 as an illustrator of adventure comics for Dardo publishers. He drew 'Steve Morgan il Trappolatore' in Collana Scudo, as well as humorous comics in Tarzanetto. Four years later, he was hired by Mondadori, the publisher of the Italian Disney magazine Topoplino. He became one of the editors of Topolino, as well as one of the most notable artists. As a "Duck artist", Rota excels for his beautiful backgrounds and panoramic city views.
