Guillem March's Laura & Other Stories

Before his work on Batman and the hit Joker series, before he created Karmen, there was the heartfelt story of Laura, the book that led to Guillem March to the mainstream comics world!

Suffering from the ever-painful experience of unrequited love, twenty- year-old Laura takes a look at her life. Is the fact that the boy she has feelings for is in love with someone else mean there is something wrong with her? Or is that just how young love goes? And what will happen when she tries to get past the hurt and move on with her life?

Laura is an exploration into the mind of a young woman who has experienced something most people have, but in an honest and beautiful way that only Guillem March can bring us.

Other stories in the book include Irene, which explores the nature of inspiration and creating art outside of one's comfort zone, thanks to some advice from a role model and a cameo by Guillem himself. And in Muse, an artist's search for a model puts how a young woman is perceived by her male roommates into perspective.

Includes bonus material, cover gallery and more in this hardcover collection.

Guillem March has drawn funny comic strips for Dolmen's magazine, super-hero comic books for DC Comics, slice of life stories for Diario de Mallorca or erotic comics for Playboy... March has a very impressive variety of graphic registers and he tends to alternate genres and graphic finishings in his different works. He started working in the US market in 2008, when he began his collaboration with DC Comics. He has drawn comics and covers for different titles of the Batman franchise, especially the ones starred by Catwoman, a character for whom he has drawn many comic books, including the launch of Gotham City Sirens and Catwoman's relaunch in The New 52. March, a self-taught artist, won in the first years of his career a good number of contests (among them the 1st and 2nd Igualada's Young Comic Contest or the 4th Barcelona Manga Fair in 1998) and took part in several exhibitions by young artists in the Balearic Islands.
