Misión: Murillo / Misión: Velázquez

Misi\u00f3n: Murillo / Misi\u00f3n: Vel\u00e1zquez, launched in 2024 by Unrated Comics, is a bilingual, art-historical two-part series that reimagines the lives of Spanish Baroque painters Bartolom\u00e9 Esteban Murillo and Diego Vel\u00e1zquez as secret agents on clandestine missions. With only one issue released so far, the series blends historical fiction with espionage, inviting readers to see the masters' canvases as coded dispatches. It matters as a fresh, niche crossover of fine art and genre comics, offering a playful yet informed tribute to Spain's Golden Age.
