Who is Vicente Segrelles?

Vicente Segrelles is a Catalan-Spanish comic book artist and writer.

He was born in Barcelona.

Segrelles gained popularity in Europe for his painted comic epos The Mercenary, started in 1980. Set in a medieval fantasy world, El Mercenario follows the adventures of a mercenary in his fight against evil. Unusual for the craft of comic books, every panel of his work for this series—which reached 13 issues so far—is painted in oil, a time consuming process.

Segrelles was also the cover artist for the Italian science fiction magazine Urania from 1988 to 1991.
