Esta vez no puedo echarle la culpa a la chamba por el retraso. Ayer, por fin pude comprar una nueva computadora. Es una muy veloz imac con pantallota de 27 pulgadas, que por otra parte se tardó SIGLOS en terminar de copiar los archivos de la máquina anterior.
Pero héla aquí, la primera tira hecha en la nueva máquina. -Normalmente las de la furia las hago a lápiz, en esta ocasión hice una excepción.
Harto contento. 
About 3 days back, I got an email from Maritza Campos, creator of CRFH and a good friend to invite me to collaborate with her on a guest strip for PVP. Said strip was published by Scott today, and I’m fearing for the life of my server! The visit count is massive! It’s barely 7 am here, and this site has received more visits than every previous day. We’re getting visitors from all over the world and I’m happy as hell. -This is why I’m writing this in english.
To those of you are visiting here for the first time, welcome. I’m sorry the entire site is in spanish, I know you can`t read it right now, but I’m taking steps to remedy that very soon. For the moment, you can see the pretty pictures at the links above, and I hope you’ll come back soon, when I have an english version.
I should say, that back in 2008 when I first played with the idea of doing a webcomic, after nearly 20 years of working on the ‘serious’ side of the comicbook business, I became a fan first of the podcast ‘webcomics weekly’, Where Señores Kurtz, Guigar, Kellet and Straub explained the ins and outs of the webcomic business model. It was eye-opening to say the least. I’ve put to the test most of the concepts, ideas and experiences they explained on that podcast (and later the book).
Funnily enough I was first a fan of the podcast, and later became a fan of their strips. Specially PVP, to my tastes the better drawn.
I’m doubly grateful to Scott first for the inspiration to start doing webcomics, then to Maritza for proving that even from a country like Mexico, it is possible to make a living doing comics.
This is such a rush!
I hope you like the strip.
