Enrique Badia Romero (who signs his work simply "Romero") is a Spanish comic strip artist, best known to English-speaking audiences for his work on Modesty Blaise. He is also the creator of the post-apocalyptic science fiction strip Axa, as well as a substantial body of work in his native Spain.
ENRIQUEBADIAROMERO was born in 1930 in Barcelona, Spain.
Another thing easily noticed as Romeros handiwork, is the stunning clothes he loved to dress his women in.
In 1978 though, Romero and comic book writer Donne Avenell (also famous for his great work with The Phantom) created the futuristic series AXA, in which a beautiful woman escapes from the Dome of the future where everything is rules and free thinking is not allowed.
The strip was syndicated among a large number of newspapers ranging from the Johannesburg Star to the Detroit Free Press, The Bombay Samachar, The Telegraph, (Calcutta, India), The West Australian (Perth, Australia) and The Glasgow Evening Citizen.
After Jim Holdaway's death in 1970, the art of the strip was provided by the Spanish artist Romero.
Eight years later, Romero quit to make time for his own comics projects, and after short attempts by John Burns and Patrick Wright, Neville Colvin drew the strip until 1982.
