Humor, Satire, and Freedom: Issue 9 of Revista del Frente Viñetista is Now Out!

Cartoons and social commentary join forces once again in the latest issue of La Revista del Frente Viñetista. In a global context where freedom of expression is frequently put to the test, this publication continues to stand as a bastion of critical thinking and graphic resistance through humor.

This new edition is packed with sharp content, tackling subjects that often unsettle those in power and analyzing control mechanisms in the digital age.


A Powerhouse of 27 Artists: The Illustrators

The greatest strength of this issue lies in its ability to bring together the most prominent names from the Spanish and international cartooning scene. The magazine features the work of the following artists, who use their pens to hold a mirror up to society:

Adene, Art Molero, Atxe, Avilarte, Eneko, El Koko, El Lapiz Loco, El Vera, Ermengol, Esther Nieto, Falco, Faro, Gabo, Garci, Idoia de Luxán, Iñaki y Frenchy, Junco, Kap, Lex Gromiko, Lope, Laura Morillo, Marilena Nardi, Martirena, Nerja, Sintes, M.S. De Frutos, and Quim Sosa.


Uncensored Specials: The King and the “Trump” Storm

At the heart of this issue are two major features. The first is “Borbón y cuenta nueva,” a collection of cartoons—often deemed “unpublishable”—focused on the figure of Spain’s King Emeritus. The second is an extensive section titled “Fuego, muerte y desTrumpción” (Fire, Death, and DesTrumpction), dedicated to the controversial former US President.

Highlights of this Edition:

  • Digital Censorship: An in-depth report on Instagram’s censorship policies and a chronology of editorial censorship within the HuffPost blogs.
  • Historical Memory: A graphic analysis of the “Tejerazo” coup attempt and a special tribute to the great masters of the past, focusing on Tono.
  • Culture and Events: Reviews of current exhibitions and a curated selection of “books to look at.”
