About Gasti Latorre: Ilustrador e Historietista autogestivo e independiente desde hace más de 10 años. Desde que obtuve Batman & The Outsiders nro. 1 y West Coast Avengers nro. 44 a finales de los 80s, no paré de dibujar o leer historietas. Eso me llevó a vincularme con el arte narrativo y secuencial de forma profesional, al punto de hoy tener mi propio run (Jobs Comics) el cual va por el número 10 (11 y 12 en post producción).
