Spider 15

Jordi Bernet is a master of black-and-white draughtsmanship in the European tradition. The son of cartoonist Miguel Bernet (Jorge), he achieved international recognition for his long association with Torpedo, Enrique Sánchez Abulí’s hard-boiled crime saga set in 1930s New York. Bernet’s uncompromising contrast, fluid body language and confident brushwork have made him one of the most respected figures in contemporary comics storytelling, with subsequent work on Kraken, Clara de Noche and Jonah Hex.
