Manuel Bartual is a screenwriter, cartoonist and editor. He began creating his own comics, but for some time now he has also used film, television, novels, podcasts or social networks to tell stories.

He has directed a dozen short films and a feature film (All your secrets, CANAL + award for the best film at the 18th Malaga Film Festival), drawn in publications such as El Jueves y Orgullo y Satisfaction and designed for El País, Santillana, Astiberri, Dibbuks and Es Pop, among others. He also runs, together with Alba Diethelm, the ¡Caramba! Publishing house, specialized in humor comics. His latest works include the novel El otro Manuel (Planeta, 2018), the reality show #ElGranSecuestro (for Playz de RTVE, in 2019) and Biotopía, a science fiction series in podcast format (2020).
