Hay cantidad de fotos en las que le veréis acompañado de Fernando Tarancón y Laureano Domínguez (Astiberri), Monteys, Mauro Entrialgo y Álvaro Pons, entre otros. Además, el incansable compañero y amigo Javi Arriola (Comix, La BD, Volatilis) subió hace unos días a Youtube tres pequeños videos de la prentación de Bone en el Fnac de Madrid, que podéis ver en estos enlaces. Por lo que comenta en su blog, da la impresión de que Jeff lo ha pasado bien y ha comido mejor, y lo que es más importante, las ventas de Bone han sido un absoluto éxito, habiéndose vendido en dos semanas la mitad de la tirada para un año. Sin duda, la labor promocional de Astiberri está dando sus frutos. Otras editoriales deberían tomar nota y darse cuenta de que los cómics no se venden solos, y que tal vez merece la pena dejar de contratar dos o tres series mediocres y emplear esos dineros en promocionar obras de calidad y/o con un amplio abanico de posibles compradores.

There were comics on sale at every news-stand (mostly Marvel reprints and Manga) and four or five pretty great comic stores within walking distance of my apartment. It seemed like I was always finding a new store somewhere! As a point of contrast, I live in Southern California and it's a 20 minute drive to any comic book retailer worth mentioning! Que tengas un buen viaje! Enjoy Spain! I spent a semester studying abroad in Granada, Spain and they are CRAZY about comics there.
