title: Tales of an Imperfect Future
author: Alfonso Font
description: Alfonso Font (Barcelona, 1946) is one of the best full spectrum artists that Spain has ever gave birth to. After his debut in the 60s, he spent some time in Paris in the 70s. There, he finished his training as a jack-of-all-trades author, able to successfully master any and all genres. In the 80s, he established his reputation by publishing in virtually every Spanish magazine of that period. He features an outstanding skill for action scenes and, at the same time, the rare ability of giving his many and very varied characters a life of their own. The author lives in Barcelona, Spain.

  “Resuza?” asked Alfonso, half in disbelief.
  
  
  “He speaks!” said Resuza giddily. She seemed unusually happy that Alfonso had
