Pep

Pep made their debut in the pages of El Víbora #26 in 1982, brought to life by the legendary underground talents Shelton and Dave Sheridan for Barcelona's Ediciones La Cúpula — a publisher that was the beating heart of Spain's alternative comics scene during the Bronze Age. With only a handful of catalog appearances concentrated in that early-eighties window, Pep is a rare and fleeting presence, sharing those anarchic pages with a wonderfully colorful cast including El Niñato, Tío Emo, and Comisario Loperena. For collectors and fans of underground and European alternative comics, stumbling across Pep is a genuine find — a small but vivid thread in the rich, irreverent tapestry that made El Víbora one of the most distinctive comics magazines of its era.
