The case of Melvino López, the king of POP.

I worked for years on an ad agency that handled a few corporate mascots. I was at the time also working on my Vinny comic, and I couldn’t help imagine how those mascots would fare on Vinny’s world.

My guess is that fame an fortune can twist everybody, even cute cartoon characters.

This is the first comic I’m publishing in English in my mailing list. I’m sure my translation skills are not all that great. Feel free to let me know when I messed up with the language. The advantage of digital comics is they can be fixed any time!

I hope you enjoy this story even if it is about 20 years old. I promise the next ones are gonna be more up-to-date.

Bachan.

Nice to see an English version. Not because of readability - I will continue to read the Spanish version, as I want to train my knowledge of that language. But it does indeeed need training, meaning that I would never dare to try to add a comment in Spanish - now I can do it in English without feeling like an foreign intruder.

Incidentially, I hope you will at some time continue Tábano. I don't mind it being somewhat confusing - but then, I was a fan of the late, great Moebius (am I quite wrong when I seem to detect some inspiration from him?)
