Armadillo

Formed in Spartanburg, SC around 1970, Uncle Walt’s Band (David Ball, Deschamps Hood, and Walter Hyatt) established themselves in the area before relocating to Nashville (garnering a following a recording/publishing deal with Buzz Cason), and eventually Austin (per the invite of Willis Alan Ramsey who was anxious to record them.)

La profecía del armadillo supuso el descubrimiento de uno de los mayores talentos del cómic europeo. El estilo fresco y original de Zerocalcare le ha valido un reconocimiento creciente que lo ha situado entre los autores favoritos del panorama italiano. A su vez, las dos figuras que protagonizan esta novela gráfica casi se han convertido en iconos del noveno arte. La trama es aparentemente sencilla: el autor y su conciencia, representada por un armadillo gigante, se ven empujados a una espiral de recuerdos ante la noticia de la insidiosa muerte de Camille, amiga de la infancia y primera amor de Zero.

David Attenborough looks at the giant armadillo and examines how this seldom-seen animal provides scores of other creatures with the hotel and restaurant services they need to thrive in earth's biggest natural wetland - the Pantanal of Brazil.
