Lautaro Fiszmanfiction book author Lobisón with Pablo Franco, and Tomás Coggiolacartoonist with Marcelo Basile de Mikilo, they will draw live. In addition, there will be Enrique Alcatena, with a very long career in the world of comics and specifically as a cartoonist of mythological beings, who within his work has a rather curious book called DC Universe by Enrique Alcatena”, explained the curator.

The mixture between the North American superheroes and the autochthonous mythological beings of the national idiosyncrasy is extremely singular, it will be part of the sample, and the artistic person in charge of that comic, the prolific cartoonist Quique Alcatena will be portraying some of those figures live.
