Three old friends reunite for the mother of all road trips! One of Spain' s most brilliant graphic novelists finally makes his English-language debut in this elegantly unpredictable gem. Three old friends reunite for the mother of all road trips! One of Spain' s most brilliant graphic novelists finally makes his English-language debut in this elegantly unpredictable gem. Polly, Moho, and Piter haven' t seen each other in years. Now they' ve piled into a car for a loooong journey to a mysterious cross marked on a map. All their old personality quirks and conflicts are resurrected with new wrinkles as this surreal reunion gets underway. Up ahead are car chases, alcohol, roadside motels, banjo-playing thugs, a ship graveyard, violence, sensual tension, and, of course, a monkey! The captivating first graphic novel from internationally renowned cartoonist Alvaro Ortiz is an explosive mix of emotional road movie and hooligan thriller in which nothing is what it seems.
Alvaro Ortiz studied graphic design at the Escuela Superior de Diseno de Aragon and illustration at the Escola Massana in Barcelona. After winning several comic competitions, including the 2003 Injuve Comic Award, he has become one of Spain' s most acclaimed cartoonists. After the youth graphic novel series Julia and the Norwegian-themed comic book Fjorden, Ortiz released his debut graphic novel for adults, Cenizas (Ashes), which was created with an Alhondiga Bilbao grant at the Maison des Auteurs in Angouleme, France. His subsequent works include Murderabilia (2014), Rituales (2015), and Viajes (Astiberri, 2016), as well as a collaboration with the Thyssen-Bornemisza National Museum and a pair of webcomics created during the COVID-19 pandemic. Ashes is his first book in English.
