Brazil
My name's Felipe Sobreiro. I'm Brazilian, born in 1981. I grew up in Bogotá, Colombia.
I'm the artist behind THE NEW ADVENTURES OF SIGMUND FREUD (written by Juan Arteaga), US vs THEM (written by Alex de Campi), COCKROACHES (written by Santiago Casares), RAILROAD BOY (written by Sam Costello) and a handful of other short comics.
I colored LIVING MORPHEUS, which was featured in HEAVY METAL MAGAZINE, and REMNANTS, which was featured in Image Comics' POPGUN ANTOLOGY V. 1 (both written by R.G Llarena and drawn by Milton Sobreiro). I also colored and lettered comics for BOOM! Studios on 2008. In 2009 I colored EARTHBUILDERS, a science-fiction webcomic for Zuda Comics/DC Digital. In 2011 I colored THE STRANGE TALENT OF LUTHER STRODE, a mini-series published by Image Comics.
