Down Payment On Braces

Carlos Trillo (1943-2011)

Sometimes an author's death catches us completely unawares, and its loss can only make us feel rage and despair, and more if it's someone relatively young and was active and at the foot of the canyon. In addition, the traumatic loss can lead us to realize the many debts we have with that artist, and while it can generate a minimum of guilt. That was my reaction when I discovered yesterday morning that the great Carlos Trillo, probably the most important writer of the comic story with Argentina Hector Oesterheld Germain, if we exclude (and there is no reason for it) to Paraguayan Robin Wood, one of the most important writers cartoon world, died unexpectedly at the age of 68 during the last weekend while he was traveling in Europe with his wife.
undoubtedly a big one can work with larger, and this could be the perfect summary of the career of Carlos Trillo , who has worked with some of the best artists of the English-speaking world as may be their compatriots Alberto Breccia ( One such Daneri ), Enrique Breccia ( Alvar Mayor, or the lyrical kaleidoscope of the human condition that is The Pilgrim of the stars ) , Horacio Altuna ( Charlie Moon, The little doors to Mr. Lopez, ...), Merdichevski Eduardo Risso ( I vampire ...), Mandrafina ( The Iguana , Spaghetti Brothers ...) or our Jordi Bernet ( Clara night, Light and bold ...).


Now we have just discovered and / or rediscover the wonderful legacy he has left Carlos. Thank you very much for all teachers.
