Francisco Martínez Roca aka Paco Roca (born in 1969 on Valencia, Spain) is a Spanish strip cartoonist with experience in graphic novels and advertisement illustrations.[1][2][3]
He's best known for his comic-books like Wrinkles.[4] Perro Verde Films produced a cinema adaptation titled Arrugas (Spanish for Wrinkles) directed by Ignacio Ferreras and released on September 19, 2011.[5][6][7]
Life and career
Roca read comics since childhood, such as Asterix and Obelix, Lieutenant Blueberry and Tintin. In addition to these comic classics, the style of comic authors such as Richard Corben, Carlos Giménez and Frank Miller also influenced him.
