Born in Madrid in 1972, Juan Diaz Canales began his career at 18 for the Spanish animation studio Lapiz Azul, where he and Juanjo Guarnido first met. After Guarnido moved to Paris, the two traded ideas about the project that became Blacksad, a series of graphic albums written by Diaz Canales as a 1950s noir. The writer now juggles scripting for comics and animation as well as directing for television. While Blacksad was Canales's first published comics work, he has collaborated with several artists, most recently with Antonio Lapone on the Eisner-nominated Gentlemind, co-written with Diaz Canales's wife Teresa Valero. Juanjo Guarnido was born in Granada, Spain, in 1967. After meeting Juan Diaz Canales at the Lapiz Azul animation studio, Guarnido moved to Paris in 1993 to join the Walt Disney Studios satellite in Montreuil, where he worked as an animator. While there, Guarnido began drawing his first graphic album, working long-distance with Diaz Canales toward the 2000 publication of Blacksad- Somewhere within the Shadows. The overwhelming success of the title has allowed Guarnido to take on other projects, like Sorcelleries with writer Teresa Valero and the recent best-selling Les Indes Fourbes with writer Alain Ayroles.

It’s one of the pillars of the comics industry. —Ricardo Serrano Denis for The Beat “Ranks among the very best cartooning I’ve ever seen in comics.” —iFanboy
