Alfonso Font is a Spanish comic book artist. He began his comics career in the 1960s as apprentice in the local Editorial Bruguera studio, working mostly at western, war, mystery and horror series, especially for foreign publishers. In the 1970s he worked for the British publisher Fleetway for several comics, in particular war series such as Black Max; later he would also work for American publishers Warren Publishing and Skywald. During the latter decade, he shortly moved to Paris, where he collaborated with the magazine Pif gadget for which, among the others, he created the science fiction series Les Robinsons de la terre. In 1972 he illustrated the series Geminis, written by Carlos Echevarría, dealing with espionage adventures set in World War I. Between the 1970s and the 1980s Font realized his most famous series: Historias negras, a collection of eighteen short, dark humorous adventures, and the science-fictional Cuentos de un futuro imperfecto. This was followed in 1982 by El prisionero de las estrellas, an ecological-themed series, and Clarke y Kubrick, Espacialistas Ltd. In 1985 Font created Jon Rohner, a comics about a seaman's wanderings inspired by tales of authors such as Jack London and Robert Louis Stevenson. In 1987 he created Taxi, about a young female taxi driver who lives a series of spy adventures. He published a series of self-contained stories entitled Private Eye, about a private detective, and Bri D'Alban, about the clash between the Catholic church and the Cathar heretics during the early 13th century. In 2002 Font became a regular member of the staff working for the Tex ongoing series.
