Emma Ríos

Emma is a cartoonist based in Spain. She shifted her focus to a mix of both architecture and work with small press publishers until working on comics full-time in 2007. Having collaborated with publishers like Marvel and DC, she was able to commit to working on her own creator-owned comics again since 2013, thanks to Image Comics, where she co-edited ISLAND and created I.D., MIRROR in two parts: THE MOUNTAIN and THE NEST with Malay cartoonist Hwei Lim, and where she currently co-creates the critically acclaimed PRETTY DEADLY with Kelly Sue DeConnick. The latter earned Ríos several Eisner Award nominations and a win for Best Cover Artist in 2020.

Her new graphic novel, ANZUELO, is set to be released in November, just in time for the festival.

As an illustrator she’s worked for clients such as SIE, Ardbeg, PRADA and Wizards of the Coast.

All special guests will appear at our comic convention on 16 & 17 November 2024.
