REPRESENTING GRAPHIC NOVELS THROUGHOUT THE WORLD

Santiago Pérez (Santipérez)

Madrid, 1970

Santiago Pérez Domínguez, better known as Santipérez, is a cartoonist and illustrator. Self-taught, he created his first stories during the 1980s that he submitted to various comic book competitions, such as the one in Getafe or those organized by the Toutain publishing house. It was thanks to one of this stories that he made his debut in the magazines of the time, as his story El Taxidermista won the 1990 competition and was published in the special edition Totem/Zona 84, which featured the winning entries.


  From that moment on, he began to publish short stories in the second era of the reborn Creepy magazine until its disappearance. He collaborated again with Toutain in the magazine Comix Internacional, published by Zinco between 1992 and 1993. After the closure of the latter, he moved away from comics to focus on illustration and advertising. 


  After almost twenty years away from the medium, he returned to comics in 2011 thanks to Cthulhu magazine, where he has published several short stories in recent years, as well as illustrating several covers for Diábolo Ediciones. Thanks to this work, he started collaborating with the American publisher IDW, for which he has drawn covers for the series M.A.S.K., G.I. Joe, and Road Of The Dead: Highway To Hell, as well as being responsible for the four-issue limited series Diablo House, in which he illustrates scripts by Ted Adams.
