About me

Real name: Carlos Casado. Born in 1978 in Mérida (España).  I lived my precious childhood and my happy youth in Merida, from which I emigrated to Madrid when I was barely 19 years old, looking for happiness and a future. Madrid was to me the city that offered new sensations, emotions, feelings and a new way of  interpreting life, one that, until then, I hadn’t even dreamt existed: the one of people who thought and felt like me. I consider myself an optimistic person, although that doesn’t  stop me from having a strong temper. I like to listen to people, to soak in their experiences and at all times am vibrating with desire to learn a bit more. Sports are, without doubt, a very important part of my life; without those hours in which I disconnect, running or swimming, I would not be able to live for that is the moment of the day in which I am alone with myself, my private moment, in which I analyze the day’s happenings and expell the bad things out of my mind and keep in the good. I adore an intense cup of coffee in company of dear friends, drinking thus, sip by sip, life and good moments alike. When I was 20, my first published comic was “Reencuentro”, in “Nautilus cómic” magazine (Studio Link). In 2002, along with some professional comic artists, I founded ITAII ITAII Magazine. A few years later, after finishing my studies in animation in the Escuela Superior de Dibujo Profesional (ESDIP)  I published “No te esperaba” (2005), one of the comics that still remain closest to my heart. A year later came the chance of publishing  “Queer in the west” (2006) in the magazine “Claro que sí”, the first of a series of works with this publication which included “Se lo monta fatal” or “Uno más, siempre el último” (both centred in the “bear” world).
