Ilustración + Comix Internacional #19
"Una bifurcación en el camino" is a striking, surreal short story from Ilustración + Comix Internacional #19 (1982), written and illustrated by Barbe in a unified, stark style that blends psychological tension with dreamlike imagery. The tale unfolds in a single night under a full moon, following a woman’s descent from a tower as fragmented memories—of violation and quiet reading—interweave in haunting, unresolved sequences. The cover, by Jordi Longarón, captures the story’s eerie, meditative mood with its sharp, expressive lines.
