*Julio 'Chiche' Medrano (1941-2010) worked under the pen-name A. Martinez and drew many illustrations for German and British comics and publications from his home in Spain. His sharply detailed work in black and white suited the medium perfectly and like so many commercial artists much of his talent went unrecognised. He excelled with his illustrations of The Falklands conflict for Fierro Magazine in 1982 and drew D'Artagnan and Fantasy for Editorial Columba. Also Skorpio, Tit-Bits, Pif Paf and Gunga Din for Ediciones Record. Julio Cesar Medrano died on July 23 2010.
