¡Universo! (Sillón Orejero)

Astisendo Grupo Editorial ¡universo! Comic. One of the employees of a company that has just launched a time machine is sent millions of years back, before the creation of the world, with a high-caliber marketing mission: he has to seal each of the particles of matter that are generated with the company logo, in order to patent the universe and that upon his return the company owns the world.This is the premise of one of the stories that make up ¡Universo!, which first appeared online on the digital platform Panel Syndicate and was nominated for the prestigious 2017 Eisner comic book awards, in the category of best digital comic.Megalomaniac missions before the Big Bang, trips to distant planets in search of other intelligent species, temporary desynchronizations, androids that are too loving, anthropomorphic insects.Albert Monteys, best known for his political and social humor cartoons published for years in the magazine El Jueves, was always passionate about science fiction, and in ¡Universo! he gives free rein to his fantasies and his fears to create vibrant stories of color and sparkling with cosmic wonder. So good.So well done.Álex de la Iglesia An outrage.David Aja The graphic display is impressive and Monteys is unleashed.He takes advantage of the color and the format, alternates large vignettes with smaller ones, draws in a more physical style than usual, because he knows that science fiction needs meat to be credible, volume, which is mixed with powerful and pop colors.The result is simply amazing.Gerardo Vilches Monteys has not only managed to make excellent use of the landscape format (imposed by the digital comic condition under which it originally appeared), but also his work when it comes to composing the page and making a drawing of the most attractive, brilliantly complemented by an almost strident color palette, is enviable.Each page of '¡Universo!´ forces you to stay dumbfounded admiring the work of its author.Jairo Álvarez, La Casa de Él An anthology of fantastic stories, in tune with Twilight Zone or Black Mirror, with truly original premises that, like the best science fiction, rather than foreseeing the fearsome future, is dedicated to talking about our sad present.Koldo Gutiérrez, Cactus. tradeinn Techinn
