ARGENTINE COMIC DAY: REMEMBER THIS DATE!

In October 2010, National Law 26.652 declared September 4th as Argentine Comic Day.

Even though Caras y Caretas magazine had been published in 1898, legislators chose September 4th in honor of  the first edition of “Hora Cero” magazine.

The magazine published Hector Oesterheld’s comics.

In Hora Cero, he published Randall the Killer’s western adventures, Ernie Pike’s bitter stories and El Eternauta, a science fiction story with no precedent at the time.

Celebrating Argentine Comic Day means paying tribute to that Golden Age of passion and inspiration.

The Paseo de la Historieta

Walking Buenos Aires with the Comics

The Paseo de la Historieta, an entertaining walk through Buenos Aires that includes figures from various comic strips, begins in San Telmo with the famous statue of Mafalda, a character created by Quino, and culminates with a Giraffe by Mordillo, indicating that the Museo del Humor (Museum of Humor) in Puerto Madero is nearby.

On July 20, 2012 the streets of Buenos Aires added a new element to their distinctive je ne sais quoi when a number of comic strip characters, immortalized in magazines and newspapers, came to life in 3-D and began to enliven the street corners in the neighborhoods of San Telmo, Montserrat, and Puerto Madero, leading to the creation of the entertaining Paseo de la Historieta.

It all began on the corner of Defensa Street and Chile, with a little girl in a green dress who has a huge hair bow and some revolutionary ideas: our beloved Mafalda appeared, sitting very comfortably on a bench near the house where she was born. She seemed ready to explain her particular way of seeing the world. As her popularity with locals and tourists grew, other beloved characters began to appear: first Susanita and Manolito showed up to keep her company and then, four years later, several other endearing personalities from Argentine comic strips began guiding us, story after story, to the Museo del Humor in Puerto Madero.

Mafalda, Susanita, and Manolito

Created in September 1964 by the cartoonist Quino, these characters came to stir things up, critiquing the system and the socio-political situation of the time. Mafalda, with her hate of soup and injustice; Susanita, with her dreams of marrying and becoming the perfect mother; and Manolito, with his warehouse and simple-mindedness, made a memorable group of friends.
