Definition

The history of comics in Spain is distinct from the history of Spanish comics and there are individual pages for the industries from some of the most prominent Central and South American industries.

History

The Spanish market is one of the largest from the European comic industry in overall published works but Spain has a lot of crossover with the Central and South American countries due to the shared language and creatives, with some tendencies for these various countries to import works from each other while at other times they will publish their own editions of the same material.

Notable Creators and Series

Sergio Aragonés is one of the most famous creators in American comics but has also published in his native Spain.

Translation Industry

A lot of Spain's comic publishing is translated reprints from early major magazines like Totem or El Jueves to one of the biggest overall publishers being Panini España which primarily serves as one of the biggest branches of Panini in bringing over American comics and the like. Major Spanish publishers also translate works from other European markets and some Japanese manga.
