Description: "Mascota" (Pet) is the first graphic novel by Mariano Grassi and tells the story of Jaime, an anthropomorphic dog who, knowing that he is going to be a father, decides to look for a job and finds it as a servant of an eccentric billionaire couple. The story was created between 2014 and 2019 and the drawing has a style of child caricature and in several sections takes place in silence, without the intervention of ballon words in the sequences it narrates. Initially it was a 12-page comic strip (which is now the first chapter) for a publication of El Tripero, the publishing collective in which he has participated since the mid-90s, but it seemed to Grassi then as incomplete.
Notes: In Spanish.
