Miguelanxo Prado

    July 16, 1958

    This author first made a name for himself in the underground comics scene, beginning with the magazine Zero alongside other notable creators of his generation. He later published in leading titles of the era, such as Creepy and Comix Internacional, producing serials that explored fragmented and surreal narratives. After a period dedicated to character design for animated television, including the American series Men in Black, he returned to standalone projects. These include an adaptation of a section of Don Quixote and his first feature-length animated film, De Profundis. His work is characterized by visual inventiveness and a tendency to bridge different genres.

      On the occasion of NBM's 40th anniversary, a classic is brought back in print! A small streak of an island in the Atlantic. On no map. In heavy summer heat. One general store with a woman and her taciturn boy. A lighthouse with no light. Memories and messages graffitied on the pier wall. A chance encounter with a beautiful elusive woman. A Murder. Or was it? Nothing seems completely real. Only the graffitied memories are constant. A mysterious multifaceted novel steeped in magical realism that can be read a number of ways, Streak of Chalk is one of Spain's best comics authors' magnum opus, and one of the greatest, most pioneering graphic novels NBM ever published.
