The Winter of the Cartoonist (2020)
Comic
Published
A love letter to Spanish comics themselves. In the 1950s five cartoonists walked out of Bruguera, one of the country's biggest publishers, to run a magazine of their own, and Roca dramatises what that rebellion meant for artists working under Franco's dictatorship.
Read it after Wrinkles: it is a way into the history of the humour comics that Spanish children grew up on, told through the people who drew them. Fantagraphics published it in English in 2020.
