I was in Madrid last year to promote the Spanish edition of Rolling Blackouts when I was given a very interesting assignment by El País Semanal: go to the Prado and the Reina Sofía museums, look at Goya’s painting, “the 3rd of May” and Picasso’s “Guernica” and make a comic reflecting on these works for the magazine. I only wish I had has more time to spend with these paintings (not the mention the other treasures I missed while speeding through these museums before my train left the station). You can read the Spanish version here. The English version was published on the Nib and is in full below.
