Spaghetti Bros

In Spaghetti Bros (2020–present, Arte de Autor), a four-issue comic series, creator João Fazenda serves up a whimsical, wordless homage to classic Italian cinema and spaghetti westerns, following two hapless brothers through a series of silent, cinematic misadventures. Published by the Portuguese imprint Arte de Autor, the series stands out for its expressive, cartoonish art and its clever use of visual storytelling, evoking the slapstick charm of Buster Keaton and the dusty landscapes of Sergio Leone without a single line of dialogue. It matters as a modern example of how comics can distill genre tropes into pure, playful imagery.
