El Torres (1972) is an acclaimed Spanish writer, multiple award-winner in Spain and even an Eisner nominee, creator of comics like The Veil, Nancy in Hell, and Roman Ritual. His work focuses on horror and scary things. But he also enjoys lettering comics, and even more so when they're his friends' comics. And that's what he's doing here! El Torres' work is characterized by the use of familiar tropes from popular culture, always giving them a unique twist. His books have been published in the USA, Spain, France, Germany, Italy, Brazil, Poland and Japan, but he prefers to live in the south of Spain.
