The Invader: A Comic About Resilience in the Face of AdversityCarol gets paid to stay in luxury hotels and anonymously assess the quality of their facilities.Omar studies electronics at a vocational training center and sleeps on the street.Carol and Omar live in the same city, yet they inhabit two different universes.Their paths should never cross.But it´s March 2020, and the unimaginable is about to happen.This comic, emphasizes screenwriter José Antonio Pérez Ledo, was born the day my partner visited a vocational training center in a Bilbao neighborhood.When she came home, she told me that many undocumented young people study during the day and beg at night.They sleep in shelters, in ATMs, or under the shelter of a bridge.The teachers, she was told, soon find out.Hardworking and lively kids start to become troubled and withdrawn.Many throw in the towel.They drop out of school and throw themselves into survival by any means necessary.Others resist.During the making of The Invader, the authors delved into this reality, how some of these kids manage to get ahead, with their own effort and with the help of a network of good wills organized outside the institutions.And Orbe and Pérez Ledo do it wisely, building an absorbing fiction from this obscured truth.To develop this work, Alex Orbe has received a creation grant for being one of the winning proposals of one of the annual scholarships awarded by the Department of Culture of the Basque Government.In The Invader, Pérez Ledo and Alex Orbe show off their mastery as storytellers-hunters through a perfect decoy that traps you as a reader to take you where you didn´t expect:a story full of humanity in the midst of adversity.The most extraordinary in the midst of the most ordinary.Exactly the kind of stories we need so much.Javier de Isusi. tradeinn Techinn
