Comment
Luis Garcia Mozos is an artist I only recently became aware of. Despite doing extensive work in the 70's and 80's including projects for Warren Publishing and Heavy Metal, he is largely unknown by current comic art collectors. That is something I hope to change with this gallery and introducing you to his art. My introduction came in the pages of David Roach's fantastic book, Spanish Masters of Comic Book Art. Check it out and check out the rest of the Mozos art I have posted in my Comicartfans gallery.

Très belle page ! Le sieur Garcia utilise très bien la photo pour dessiner ! Car certaines cases sentent la repro de photos a plein nez ! Ce n est pas un reproche car même Giraud faisait cela ! Mais j'aimerai bien que l'on voit ce qui est de la composition pure et ce qui ne l est pas . Cela étant le resultat est époustouflant ! Je me demande quand même si le type sait composer sans reproduire une photo ! Cela étant il a beaucoup de talent !

About Luis García Mozos
Luis García was born in Puertollano, Spain in 1946. In the early 1960s he joined publisher Bruguera and the international agencies Creaciones Editoriales and Josep Toutain's Selecciones Ilustradas. Apart from some exceptions like 'Davy Crocket' (1963), most of his assignments of this decade were romances for the UK and other European countries, including Spain. He also participated in the beginning of Esteban Maroto's '5 por Infinito' (1968) and the series 'Aventuras en la Selva' (1969)
In 1972 Luis García worked for Warren in New York, then he switched to the French magazine Pilote. Using his detailed, almost photographic style, he cooperated with Victor Mora on 'Chroniques de l'Innomé' ('Las Crónicas del Sin Nombre') Pilote published this series from 1973 to 1980 (Warren translated some episodes showing modifications in both texts and pictures).
Teaming up with Carlos Giménez and Adolfo Usero, Luis García drew 'La Isla del Tesoro' (1977) and 'La Gran Aventura' (1978, later renamed '4 Amigos'), both for juvenile readers. Also during the 1970s he turned out occasional short stories which appeared in such publications as Pilote, Scop, Bang! and Trocha. Felipe Hernández Cava and other writers helped with the scripts. Later on those stories were gathered in the books 'Etnocidio' (1979) and 'Chicharras' (1985)
