Salva Rubio is a Spanish author and historian who has been recognized multiple times for his scriptwriting, ranging from short films to feature-length films and graphic novels. Having earned a master's degree in scriptwriting for film and television, Rubio has worked for several Spanish production companies, including a short film nominated for the Goya awards in 2010 (the Spanish equivalent to the Oscars), and the feature-length animated film "Deep" in 2016.
Rubio made his debut in the comics field in 2017 with publisher Le Lombard, bringing to life two striking and very different projects: "Monet, nomade de la lumière" ("Monet: Itinerant of Light, " NBM) and "Le Photographe de Mauthausen" ("The Photographer of Mauthausen, " Europe Comics), both of which were met with critical acclaim. In 2021, he worked once more with Ricard Efa on "Degas, la danse de la solitude" ("Degas: The Dance of Solitude, " Europe Comics). Efa was born in Sabadell, Spain.
At the age of 16 he quit his studies to enjoy... life. In 1995 he created his first fanzine with some friends: Realitat Virtual. From there, he worked in a cartoon studio as well as working as a freelance illustrator. He entered the world of comics in 2001, in collaboration with the writer Toni Termens, with the series "Les Icariades" (3 volumes and a complete edition published by Paquet). In 2002 he began his solo series - "Rodiguez" (two volumes also published by Paquet).
In 2004 (still with Paquet) he published "L'Âme du vin", a very personal album that he wrote and illustrated. Between 2007 and 2009, he illustrated and colored the series "Kia Ora" (3 volumes with Vents d'Ouest, script by Olivier Jouvray and Virginia Ollagnier). In 2008 he joined the "Alter Ego" team, joining forces with Mathieu Reynès, a previous contact from Paquet.
