description: "Fabio Coala is a Brazilian comics artist. After five years of working as a firefighter, he created the website Mentirinhas in which he publishes, starting in 2010, webcomics with different characters. One of the main characters is \"O Monstro\", a toy monster that helps children with problems by becoming a real monster for them. The first Monster's printed graphic novel was released in 2013 after a successful crowdfunding campaign and, in the following year, the book won the Troféu HQ Mix in the category \"Best Independent Publication\". A Coala's comic strip called \"Perfeição\" (\"Perfection\") was also adapted in 2014 as a short animated movie by Jacob Frey and Markus Kranzler. The movie, called The Present, has won 77 awards from several film festivals and has garnered critical acclaim."
