GOOMER

On a far-off planet, way out there...that is where this amazing galactic saga takes place. This is a story full of horrible monsters, unknown life forms, strange extraterrestrials, and other indescribable beings. But all that’s nothing compared to their greatest danger: an Earthling named GOOMER

ABOUT THE CREATOR

Ricardo Martínez was born to Spanish parents in 1956 in Santiago, Chile. He moved with his family to Spain in 1969. By his first week in Madrid, he’d met Nacho—Ignacio Moreno who was born in Vitoria, Spain, in 1957. Ever since they met, they became great friends and shared dreams, travels, and above all, a passion for comics. This mutual love for the ‘funnies’ led them to unite Ricardo’s artistic talent with Nacho’s humorous narrative to create a strip to be published in the USA. This was how Goomer was born many years ago. This enduring friendship lasted until Nacho passed away in 2022.

MAIN CHARACTERS

GOOMER

Short, chubby and balding, as an astronaut, he’s a disaster waiting to happen. He was lost when he landed on this planet, saw a chance to make a buck, and stayed. What isn’t entirely clear is why he had to travel so far just to end up living off of a female.

OPS

He’s Goomer’s best friend, and the guy that pays all of Goomer’s bills when Elma’s not around.

ELMA

This comely alien is Goomer’s girlfriend, although there are different schools of thought on this point. (Mainly Elma’s and Goomer’s)

ELMA’S PARENTS

They have a comfortable existence, which is altered only when their daughter’s boyfriend creates havoc in their lives.

MAIN CHARACTERS

ELEVATOR

One of Goomer’s first friends on the planet. He’s got a heart of gold, but is very irresponsible, which makes him switch jobs constantly.

NEILA

She lives away from home because she’s getting her university degree. But whenever she comes home, she has to deal with unwanted admiration from her sister’s boyfriend.

ROACH

His customs are a bit different than others on the planet, but he’s a lot like Goomer, because he knows how to milk a situation. This similarity makes them clash.
