Often referred to as "The master of fl and white", Alberto Breccia was born in Montevideo, Uruguay on 15th April 1919 and moved with his parents to Argentina at the age of three years.
Breccia drew the story with a decidedly experimental style, resorting to diverse techniques to obtain a work that was anything but conventional and moving away from the commercial.
Breccia refused to modify its style, which added to the tone of the script, and was much different from Solano Lopez' original.

Breccia inherited this strip, first drawn by Emilio Cortinas, in 1947, and draw it for over ten years, giving the detective a tougher side, still with a classical comic style he already explored new and daring framings.

Breccia and Sasturain started to work on this comic in 1982, as the army still ruled the country, and it is considered the best comic about Argentina during the dictatorship years, even out of its genre limits.

A fan favourite since his days on VITO NERVIO, Breccia slowly developed a drawing style heavy on the use of inks and lighting, a look that, at that time, was revolutionary.
Sadly, the only available editions of Oesterheld and Breccia's work are in French, Italian or Spanish, in which languages MORT CINDER has been graced with a recent re-release in hardback.
