Pioneros del cómic

A Spanish series from El Nadir Ediciones launched in 2014, Pioneros del cómic collects foundational works of the 19th-century graphic narrative, spotlighting the pioneering Swiss artist Rodolphe Töpffer. The first issue pairs Töpffer’s own work with that of Cham, another early master of the form, preserving these historically vital, pre-superhero comics for a modern audience. It matters as a dedicated archival project, making scarce, influential strips accessible and underscoring the deep European roots of the medium.
