    You got it right! Azpiri’s first comic is from 1971 and did many covers in the old days. More examples in the linked source, and an extra one here:

      I’d never heard of Azpiri - Lorna and Blackthorne look fantastic. Thank you for sharing internet friend 👍

      His art is awesome, reminds me of Frazetta. Do you have any favorite comics of his that you would reccomend?

        I dind’t want to describe Azpiri as the “Spanish Frazetta” (EDIT: maybe “with a Moebius touch”?) because it can sound pretentious :P, but I see some truth there.

        Do you have any favorite comics of his that you would reccomend?

        I grew up reading Mot, his most children-safe comic, but I cannot find anything in Enlgish.

        On Anna’s Archive you can find some of his more adult comics:

        But I’m not an expert, so I cannot recommend anything in particular.
