Summary

He was one of the great comic book authors, screenwriter and illustrator of his time. An artist signed by the famous Spanish editor and representative Toutain for his publications at the best artistic moment of his long career.
With the passage of time we see his work with nostalgia and his freshness and dynamism surprise us. With a pioneering and avant-garde technique for the time at the height of the current digital technique.
For this, Corben well deserves a space on the web.

Definitely. There is a lot of room for improvement for future releases of Corben's material. Either using color and black and white originals to build the new color base, such as those extracted directly from the original publications of the 80s and the corresponding color correction.
