Carla Berrocal (1983) studied illustration and graphic design at the Escuela de Artes y Oficios N.10 in Madrid. Since 2004 she has worked as an editorial illustrator in media such as Eme21mag, eldiario.es and El País, and in the Vocento group. She has always combined this work, in the field of illustration and comics, with feminist activism, teaching and dissemination; she currently collaborates in the talk show of graphic humorists of A vivir que son dos días in Cadena SER. She debuted in comics as a cartoonist in Hire: El terrible vampiro samurai (2004, with Daniel Hartwell) and Mad Trio (2005, with Jason DeGroot), but soon finished her first work as a complete author in the miscellaneous volume Quattrocento (2006). After years of work, while also participating with short comics in compilations and magazines, she published in 2011 her first graphic novel, El brujo, inspired by Chilean popular culture and with which she achieved wide recognition among readers and critics. This was followed by the experimental comic Epigrafías (2016), about the life of the American poet Natalie Clifford Barney. In 2021 she published her first book in Reservoir Books, the biographical investigation Doña Concha: La rosa y la espina, the result of three years of dedication. Her latest graphic novel is the one we present here, La tierra yerma (2024), with which she returns to the adventure comic that has always fascinated her.
