About

Hi, I’m Augusto. Nice to meet you.

This site is basically my portfolio, but it was also thought as a space for you to access contents on journalism, comics and culture in general. Let me explain how it works.

There are five main sections:
JOURNALISM – COMICS – TRANSLATION – ACADEMIC RESEARCH – CULTURAL PRODUCTION

Some works are listed in more than one category.

By clicking on PORTFOLIO, you have access to all the works, regardless of category.

Oh yes, of course there is also a section only for COMICS JOURNALISM, my speciality.

And there is even a BLOG, where I post news, reviews, or curiosities and some random thoughts…

That said, maybe you still need a short bio. See below!

Have fun on this site!
