Overview
- Presented in Barcelona, the comic Escobar, una educación criminal is published by Norma Editorial with script by Pablo Martín Farina and art by Alberto Madrigal.
- Escobar frames the work as a corrective to pop portrayals, declaring, “I raise awareness, Netflix glorifies,” in urging youths not to idolize his father.
- The memoir centers on a fear-filled childhood guarded by armed sicarios, with recollections of weekly letters and cassette messages from an often-absent father.
- He keeps Pablo Escobar largely off the page—appearing mainly on the cover and at the end—to ensure the narrative focuses on his own experience.
- He reiterates public apologies to victims’ families and argues drug violence should be addressed as a public‑health issue rather than through prohibition or militarized responses.
