Alfonso Azpiri nació en una familia de músicos pero, pese a su formación académica en ese ámbito, acabó decantándose por la historieta, su verdadera vocación. Sus primeras historietas aparecieron en la revista Trinca a partir de 1971, con guiones de Carlos Buiza y Carlos Cidoncha, mostrando en ellas una gran influencia de Víctor de la Fuente.
Ignore how she looks on the cover she only seems to have that hideous drag-queen makeup in "pin-ups". This says book two but I believe that in the U.S. there was no book one- that it was published in Heavy Metal.
This was SO MUCH better than I thought it would be! All I knew was that it was a "Star Wars" parody(why I chose to read it after "Empire")with a Barbarella getting humped by a C3-PO.
It's REALLY funny! Alfazma fit so many parodies that nobody, other than loner sci-fi and pop-culture obsessed tool-bag nerds, will recognize them all. I knew I was missing at least HALF but he props-em-up and knocks-em-down seamlessly within the storyline without any governing the plot.
Of course she's chronically nude but at least it fit the plot. They crash and spend the majority of the book searching for an emergency transmitter with nothing other than gifts from Hobbit clones, pre-fire Flintstones, crone-free lesbian witches three and many others.
*I LOVED THE ART* Imagine if Sergiones (MAD, Groo...) took his time and gave characters actual anatomies while adding funny backgrounds AND making all that well-crafted too.
YES- People have hands instead of a few fingers exploding off spaghetti arms!
It's all magnificent and in beautiful color other than three pages set in a nuclear winter where only the U.S. and U.S.S.R. remained and had resorted to throwing stones at each-other- Ha!
