Gonzalo Martinez’s Summary
I have been published in my country since 1987 in a wide range of media, from independent comic magazines to newspapers doing comics, illustrations and comic strips. My strip “Horacio y el Profesor” was published since 1989 to 1999 in the main chilean newspaper El Mercurio and in the comics banner of the Opera internet browser.
Formerly an architect, in 2003 finally I decided to work as a full time comic book artist.
Since 2003 I have worked mainly for the american market on titles like”DigitalWebbing presents” with Matt Starnes, “Rich Johnston’s Holed Up” with Rich Johnston for Avatar Press, “B.A.B.E. Force” with Kirk Kushin for Forcewërks, “Leather Jacket Guy” with Matt Starnes and Diego Jourdan for 01comics and Romance comics for Arrow Publications LLC with several writers. I have made illustrations for Penny Farthing press and Ape Entertaintment.
At this moment I'm working on a new title for Forcewërks and Alias Enterprises, Super Teen*Topia, written by Kirk Kushin and continue my collaboration with Arrow Publications LLC.
In October of 2007, Alfagüara publishes my 120 pages graphic novel “Road Story”. It’s an adaptation of the short story written by the chilean writer and movie director Alberto Fuguet.
