Rogéria

In this three-issue mini-series from Escória Comix, writer and artist Rogéria crafts a dark, introspective tale set in a gritty, rain-soaked urban landscape. The story follows a solitary, unnamed woman navigating a world of crime and corruption, her path intersecting with a mysterious child and a violent gang. Published between 2016 and 2017, this Brazilian comic stands out for its stark, expressive black-and-white art and its unflinching look at survival and human connection. Rogéria's singular vision—she handled both writing and art—makes this a raw, personal work that showcases the bold storytelling emerging from independent Brazilian comics.
