Rebelde was a Mexican comic book series, published by now defunct Ka-Boom! Estudio, based on the telenovela of the same title. The comic was first published April 2006 and lasted only two issues due to conflicts caused by Ka-Boom's writers[citation needed]. Despite initial demand being high, the amateur writing team from Ka-Boom delivered the scripts for the first three issues months later than agreed[citation needed], causing the art team trouble and also creating conflicts with Televisa's editorial representatives, which led to the cancellation of the title[citation needed].
The series was advertised[citation needed] as being based on the style of Japanese manga, but it was only partially based on it[citation needed].
The creative team was formed by Rebeca Soriano as writer, with art duties provided (in the 2 published issues) by Jorge Reséndiz, inks by Eridan Zumaya and color by Guillermo Piña; writing direction by Susana Romero; art direction by Oscar González Guerrero, and the direction and editing of the project by Oscar González Loyo.
Reception
editThe book's first issue sold well[citation needed], but the delay between the first and the second issues caused sales to drop tremendously[citation needed]. The art received praise[citation needed] as the faux anime style was popular during the time of print[citation needed], while the script was heavily criticized[citation needed] by fans to the original TV show as being poorly characterized and too disconnected from the original source.
Trivia
editThis was Rebeca Soriano's only writing credit[citation needed]; she retired after this in order to work as a housemaid taking care of an elderly couple.
