Italian comics, also known as fumetto [fuˈmetto], plural form fumetti [fuˈmetti], are comics that originate in Italy. The most popular Italian comics have been translated into many languages. The term fumetto (literally little puff of smoke) refers to the distinctive word balloons that contain the dialogue in comics (also called nuvoletta, "little cloud", in Italian).

In English, the term fumetti can refer to photo comics, regardless of origin or language.
