Cinco relatos cortos unidos por la sangre y el fuego.

Papá Noel, Santa Claus, Père Noël o el Viejito de Pascua, un personaje inventado por Coca-Cola en 1931, con copyright y todo, pero que vive en la imaginación de los niños y niñas y perdura generación tras generación en la mayoría de los casos sin la más mínima ayuda de la Coca-Cola Company. ¿Qué ideas o emociones hay detrás de esta pequeña gran mentira? ¿Es su unión a celebraciones ancestrales del solsticio de invierno, o la navidad cristiana o el consumismo desenfrenado de sus regalos lo que lo mantiene? ¿Hay algo más? Yo creo que sí, pero lo mejor es explicar mi punto de vista con un recuerdo.

“ALKAIOS” is a black and white on-going series for mature readers, mainly fans of mythology, sword and sorcery, but also those who like the more experimental comics that appeared in magazines like Metal Hurlant. It’s a mix of Conan the Barbarian, The Dark Knight Returns, Born Again and Excalibur (by Claremont and Davis). The narrative makes creative decisions such as characters whose body is made up of comic panels, Alkaios going through the panels of the comic itself, breaking the fourth wall, style changes simulating newspaper strips and comics from other decades or the distribution of panels going to the beat of songs, among others.
