A Mala Assombrada
No Verão passado, conheci, através da nossa amiga comum Ana Guimil, o escritor David Machado. Ele tinha escrito um novo livro infantil que era assustador, inteligente e divertido. Mais, queria que fosse eu a ilustrá-lo. O que se seguiu foi um diálogo em busca de um equilíbrio entre clareza narrativa e a tentativa de escapar a sucessivos pleonasmos entre imagem e texto.
Ao David, agradeço a honra do seu convite e a paciência e confiança que depositou em mim.
Alguma questão mais negativa, a culpa é toda da Ana Guimil.

Last Summer, I met, through our common friend Ana Guimil, the writer David Machado. He had writen a new children's book that was scary, smart and fun. More to it, he wanted me to illustrate it. What ensued was a dialogue in search of a balance between narrative clarity and the attempt to escape a successive stream of pleonasms between image and text.
To David, my thanks for the honour granted by his invitation and the trust he had on me.
Any nastier question, it's all Ana Guimil's fault.
´A Mala Assombrada´ (Portuguese for The Haunted Case)

Mouse Guard: Legends of the Guard is a paralel project from the Mouse Guard universe, in which a group of characters, gathered through the night in a tavern, share their best stories, chronicles and legends. However, unlike the regular series, done in one-man-band style by David Petersen, the depicted tales are written and drawn by a list of guests ( Jeremy Bastian, Ted Naifeh, Alex Sheikman, Sean Rubin, Alex Kain [hey, guys!], Terry Moore, Gene Ha, Lowell Francis, Katie Cook, Guy Davis, Nate Pride, Jason Shawn Alexander, Craig Rousseau,Karl Kerschl, and Mark Smylie). David was generous enough to invite me to write and illustrate an exclusive epilogue for the hardcover edition, with the mission of revealing the dream of a character he had drawn sleeping in the tavern. Besides the extraordinary oportunity per se, I must thank him for the unflinching support he gave to this mini-story, even though he knew the script bordered the outskirts of the Mouse Guard series all-ages stamp.
Update: David has just told me that the 1st edition is now sold-out, at distribution level.
>> ISBN(13) - 978-1-932386-94-3 (Thanks go to Anabela, for the heads-up.)

Power Pack - honey
Power Pack © ™ Marvel Comics
Os Power Pack foram criados em 1984 por Louise "Weezie" Simonson e pela desenhadora e professora June Brigman. O desafio narrativo, a que estas senhoras se propuseram, de fazer viajar este elenco infantil através de um mundo muitas vezes violentamente adulto era inédito no Universo Marvel e, até hoje, que eu saiba, irrepetido.
Power Pack were created back in 1984 by Louise "Weezie" Simonson and by artist and teacher June Brigman. The narrative challenge, to which these ladies committed themselves, of making such a young cast travel across an often violently adult world was unprecedented and, until this day, to my knowledge, unrepeated in the Marvel Universe.
Wolverine: The Adamantium Diaries (Wolverine #1000)
Após o guião de "Wolverine: The Dust From Above", o editor Michael Horwitz convidou-me a desenhar uma história da mesma personagem, escrita pela minha boa amiga Sarah Cross, autora de "Dull Boy". O colorista foi Chris Chuckry, que conseguiu ter paciência suficiente para ler cada uma das minhas notas. A história é publicada a 2 de Fevereiro de 2011, na antologia especial Wolverine #1000. Mais imagéns em breve.
After the "Wolverine: The Dust From Above"script, editor Michael Horwitz invited me to draw a story of the same character, written by my good friend Sarah Cross, author of "Dull Boy". The colorist was Chris Chuckry, who managed to have enough patience to read every one of my notes. The story is to be published in February, the 2nd, 2011, in the Wolverine #1000 special anthology. More images soon.
