About the series
In just two issues, Carlos Giménez’s Paracuellos (1980–1981, Audie) delivers a stark, semi-autobiographical look at life in a Franco-era Spanish orphanage. Written and drawn entirely by Giménez, the series is a landmark of Spanish comics, capturing the grim daily routines and small rebellions of children in a state-run institution. Its raw, expressive art and unflinching honesty make it a powerful testament to survival and memory.
