bueno, lo malo, lo peor y lo mejor. A todos nos toca luchar para conseguir lo mejor, sin dejar de disfrutar lo bueno; esforzándonos para pasar lo malo y superar lo peor. Porque de lo más bajo puedes subir a lo más alto... o al revés. Y el secreto de una buena vida siempre está en el mismo lugar: en tu cabeza, ¡y en tus manos! No importa si eres futbolista o trabajas en una oficina, porque todos tenemos nuestra historia. Y esta es la mía. Verás que no es ningún cuento de hadas, sino un día a día de esfuerzo, porque hace tiempo que tomé una decisión: disfrutar del presente y trabajar para el futuro, valorando las cosas buenas y a las personas que quiero. Porque para vivir la vida no basta con respirar. Hay que vivir con arte. «Si has visto alguna vez en tu vida un partido de fútbol, aunque sea por casualidad, te habrás fijado en una cosa: todos los jugadores fallan en alguna jugada o en alguna acción. Todos. Desde el número uno del mundo, hasta el chaval que juega en el recreo del cole. Los fallos y los errores son normales, tanto en la alta competición como en el día a día. Intentar ser perfecto es la excusa para no moverte de tu sitio: "Si no me sale bien, ¿para qué intentarlo?". Pues para conseguir las cosas que quieres, para eso. Porque si no te atreves a fallar, jamás podrás ganar.»The Nine Emperors (The League of Sharks Trilogy)

Par Julia Wertz. 2023
In her keenly observed graphic memoir, Impossible People, celebrated cartoonist Julia Wertz chronicles her haphazard attempts at sobriety and the relentlessly…
challenging, surprisingly funny, and occasionally absurd cycle of addiction and recovery.Opening at the culmination of a disastrous trip to Puerto Rico, the first page of Impossible People finds Julia standing stupefied in the middle of the jungle beside a rental jeep she's just crashed. From this moment, the story flashes back to the beginning of her five-year journey towards sobriety that includes group therapy sessions, relapses, an ill-fated relationship, terrible dates, and an unceremonious eviction from her New York City apartment. Far from the typical addiction narrative that follows an upward trajectory from rock bottom to rehab to recovery, Impossible People portrays the lesser told but more common story: That the road to recover is not always linear. With unflinching honesty and a healthy dose of humor, Wertz details the arduous, frustrating, and hilarious story of trying and failing and trying again.Fortune and Glory Volume 1

POWERS tells a comedic life lesson about the horrors of Hollywood.Before his acclaimed relaunches of Superman, Action Comics, and Young Justice...before his triumphant successes with Daredevil, Ultimate Spider-Man, Invincible Iron Man, and Jessica Jones...before his groundbreaking original series Powers, Scarlet, Cover, and Pearl......Brian Michael Bendis was a hungry young cartoonist about to take his first step into the shark-filled swimming pool that is the American motion picture industry.
