Los últimos de Filipinas: el asedio de Baler en viñetas

In the graphic narration Los últimos de Filipinas, screenwriter Fernando Llor, cartoonist Raúl Orte and colorist Jorge Hov reconstruct the exciting story of Baler's heroes, a group of fifty-three military and three religious who, unaware of Spain's defeat by the United States in 1898, held out in the church of Baler (Luzon) for almost a year (337 days) against the Filipino independentists. On one hand, the work reveals how non-fiction genres have become increasingly important in contemporary comics, and on the other hand, how comics have become an ideal method for recovering and reviewing historical events.
