My Testimony: (We encourage members to share briefly about how their faith in Christ has impacted their lives.)

In 1998 several friends discussed religion, then I thought of a cartoon where I could give my views on the subject. Amazingly only a few hours later to finish the work, then this story was read by several people and helped improve our opinion and most of our friendship. Since then I know that when I do a work, is also a spiritual hand guiding my work, because this is not for my greatness, but to help and clear the way for many people who read comics. En 1998 varios amigos debatiamos sobre religión, en ese momento pensé en una historieta donde pudiera dar mi punto de vista sobre el tema. Increiblemente solo tarde unas pocas horas en terminar la obra, y luego esta historieta fue leida por varias personas y ayudó a mejorar nuestra opinion y sobretodo nuestra amistad. Desde ese momento yo sé que cuando yo hago una obra, está también una mano espiritual guiando mi trabajo, porque este no es para mi grandeza sino para ayudar y aclarar el camino de muchas personas que leen los comics.

Dream Job: (If you could have your dream job in the comics industry, what would it be?)

I would like to reinvent a popular comic and give it a new sense philosophical, political, spiritual, to suggest to people in the sense of life. As Frank Miller did with "Batman, Dark Knight Returns" and Alan Moore and Dave Gibbons with "Watchmen." I would like to draw a comic with the life of Jesus but so deeply that reaches all Mankind. No matter their creed or ideology. A comic where people finally realize that they are all human, all the same, from a single source and we have great responsibilities to assume. Me gustaría reinventar un comic popular y darle un nuevo sentido filosófico, político espiritual, que haga pensar a las personas en el sentido la vida. Como hicieron Frank Miller con el "Batman, Dark Knight Returns" o Alan moore y Dave Gibbons con "Watchmen". Me gustaria dibujar un comic con la vida de Jesús pero de un modo tan profundo que llegue a toda La Humanidad. No importa su credo o su ideología. Un comic donde las personas, al fin, realicen que todos somos humanos, todos iguales, a partir de un mismo origen y tenemos grandes responsabilidades que asumir.
