    Yes, they are brothers. Actually, according to my
sources, there were *three* brothers Rodrigues working
as pencilers for Abril Jovem: Moacir Rodrigues Soares,
Irineu Soares Rodrigues and Verci de Mello. But don't
ask me why the middle and last names of the formers
are switched, and why the latter has a different last
name. Artist's thing, I guess. ;-)
