Ilustración + Comix Internacional #20

"¡Telón!" is a striking, surreal short story from 1982, written and illustrated by Barbe in a stark, expressionistic style that turns a simple stage curtain into a portal of unsettling transformation. The story unfolds in a single, haunting sequence: a curtain parts to reveal a woman-shaped puppet, then slams shut—only for her to be found hanging, freed from her strings. The cover, a chilling collaboration by Richard Corben, captures the same eerie moment with his signature dark, fluid lines, making this a standout piece in the Ilustración + Comix Internacional series.
