Gabriel B谩 and F谩bio Moon are not only twins, but they work in an identical artistic field - the world of comic books. The brothers, who are based in Brazil, have gained a worldwide reputation for their ability to convey whole worlds in a series of cartoon panels, which fuse drawings and script to create a powerful storyline.

The brothers often work together, with successes like 鈥淗ow to Talk to Girls at Parties鈥� and 鈥淒ayTripper鈥� to their names. More recently they have been completing separate projects, with Gabriel working on 鈥淭he Umbrella Academy 鈥� and F谩bio on 鈥淐asanova.鈥�

But even when they work separately, they share the same studio space, sitting together for hours at a time and patiently sketching.

Camilla Costa visits F谩bio and Gabriel to see them at work and follows them through the process of creating their drawings. We hear all stages of the process, from the first drawing to the final inking and explore the surprising potency of comic book images.
