CARLOS PINO GALLARDO

COMMANDO TITLES

 (POCKET HOMEPAGE) 

 

 

Created: October 29th 2019

Updated: September 27th 2024          

Carlos Pino was born in Madrid 7th September 1940.

 

Carlos has had a very long and distinguished career as an artist with his early work for the Spanish market.

In the mid-60’s he started work on Fleetway publishing titles

His career is well documented at this point, so here I am going to concentrate on his work for Commando titles.

Carlos first title for Commando was #2302 Marooned! August 1989.

Carlos did the interior artwork for this title with a Jeff Bevan Cover.

This trend was repeated with other artists doing the covers until November 1993 with one exception #2345 Demon Driver where Carlos did the Cover and interior art.

From November 1993 to present Carlos has done artwork for the Covers and the Interior art with few exceptions as indicated in the list below.

I think for an untrained his work is very recognisable.
