A school field trip to an ancient castle goes terribly wrong for a group of friends, when a dangerous storm erupts. As they are about to leave the castle, four friends are cornered by their arch nemesis— the class bully, who tries to pull one of his usual pranks. Instead, they all get the scare of their lives, when they fall down a tunnel that transports them into the future: a future where mankind has nearly disappeared from the face of the earth, and where nature has taken control. The friends will have to face up to this hostile new world— as well as their nemesis, who must come to terms with his own trauma— if they are to work together and have any chance of making it back home…
CREATORS
Damián
Damián Campanario Hernández, known as Damián, was born in Barcelona in 1976. His formal training is in education, graduating from the University of Barcelona and then going to work for the Ministry of Justice in Catalonia. He would later enter the world of comics by taking part in the collective work Barcelona TM, published by Norma, where he had the chance to work alongside numerous other comics creators. From there, his projects grew in scope, ranging from the adaptation of a novel (Lágrimas en la lluvia) to the wartime graphic novel Blechkoller, his first work published in France. Over the years, Damián has steadily made his mark on the comics world, showing his incredible creativity and versatility with each new project, both collaborative works and new series, with an increasingly international reach. His series GenPet (Ankama), created alongside Àlex Fuentes, captured readers’ imagination across France, Spain, Italy, and the US, winning awards along the way. Damián and Àlex Fuentes have now come together again for the series Lost in the Future, an adventure saga for younger readers filled with surprises at every turn.
Àlex FUENTES
Spanish artist Àlex Fuentes was born in Barcelona in 1982. From a young age, he was drawn to comics and the immersive worlds of Asterix and Lucky Luke, and when it came time to choose his own path, he decided to go down the same road, setting his sights on the acclaimed Joso School in Barcelona. From there, he went to work for an animation studio, followed by a film production company, all while dabbling in fanzines along the way. In 2010 he published a full-length work, Miga, sous les nuages (published by Bang), and in 2016 he had a major breakthrough with the series GenPet (Ankama), created together with scriptwriter Damián. Most recently, the two have renewed their collaboration with the adventure series Lost in the Future, an entertaining romp through time in the company of a band of friends far from home. Recognized for his innovative and colorful style, Àlex continues to make his mark on the comics world with each new creation.
