"Where are all the monsters? � was Carlos Huante's question in his first book. And then the questions kept coming...

"What if Medusa could somehow create her own kind?� "What if Hera was a disease, a virus or a fatal agent instead of the goddess?.�

There is no end to the fantastical visual answers that Carlos provides to his own creativity inducing questions.
