REBELLION PRESENTS THE JOSE MUNOZ COLLECTION - Softcover

Über die Autorinnen und Autoren

Jack Adrian’s real name is Christopher Lowder. Over the past 50-odd years Christopher Lowder has used maybe a dozen or more pseudonyms, and had a few more foisted on him. He’s written SF, westerns, men’s adventure (for paperback carousels in the rust belt), weird tales, war fiction (WW1, WW2, Vietnam), Regency romances on the High Toby, comicbook scripts (including Dan Dare. Judge Dredd, Adam Eterno and Kids Rule, O.K.), private eye stories, horror and fantasy. He’s edited upwards of 40 mystery/weird anthologies, including a dozen or so posh ones for Oxford University Press. He’s written for the Literary Review, the Times Literary Supplement, and for nearly two decades he was a regular obituarist for the late and very much lamented Independent newspaper. Currently he is Chair of Cradley Parish Council in Herefordshire -- which should be a warning to you all.

Frank Pepper had a lengthy career writing for British comics. From the 1930s onwards he wrote for a wide variety of story papers including The Champion, Knockout, and The Comet. He is best known as the creator of Roy of the Rovers for Tiger and Captain Condor for Lion. Other well-known strips he worked on include The Spellbinder and Dan Dare. He died in 1988.

Born on 10th July 1942, José Antonio Muñoz is an Argentine artist highly regarded for his popular black-and-white artwork. Muñoz studied at the Escuela Panamericana de Arte, where he was tutored by two industry greats - Hugo Pratt and Alberto Breccia. He became the assistant of Francisco Solano López (his work for the British Almagamated Press would be through the López studio). In the early 70s, Muñoz moved to Spain and began a fruitful collaboration with writer Carlos Sampayo. Their series Alack Sinner was published in the Italian magazine Alter Linus and the French publication, Charlie Mensuel. Other notable works followed including Le Bar à Joe and Trains sur l'Eau. These strips and many others were collected and published by such European publishers as Casterman and Futuropolis. Throughout his career he has inspired several artists, including Frank Miller and Eduardo Risso, and he has won several awards over the years, including the Grand Prix de la ville d'Angoulême at the Angoulême International Comics in 2007.
