2006ref. 236882006. Memín Pinguín comic series issued during the renewed public scrutiny that followed Mexico's 2005 commemorative postage stamps depicting the character. Created by Yolanda Vargas Dulché in the 1940s Memín was presented in Mexico as a mischievous and sympathetic schoolboy but his exaggerated facial features and comic behavior drew criticism in the United States and from Afro Mexican activists as a continuation of racial caricature. Memín first appeared in 1943 in the comic serial Almas de Niño in the magazine Pepín. The stories drew partly on Vargas Dulché's childhood memories of Mexico City's Colonia Guerrero and peception of Cuban children during her travels. The series follows Memín and his school friends through comedy melodrama family hardship and moral lessons. Alberto Cabrera illustrated the strip during its early development and Sixto Valencia later became the artist most closely associated with the character; the original series was repeatedly republished and reworked across the second half of the twentieth century. These nine consecutive issues belong to Grupo Editorial Vid's Edición Homenaje and preserve the series immediately after the stamp dispute turned a long running domestic comic into a subject of transnational argument about blackness national identity and the cultural ownership of racial imagery. Memín Pinguín. Edición Homenaje. Mexico: Grupo Editorial Vid 2006. Nine consecutive Spanish language issues numbers 7 through 15. 1 Memín Pinguín No. 7 January 16 2006 "Chisme" 2 Memín Pinguín No. 8 January 23 2006 "Exámenes" 3 Memín Pinguín No. 9 January 30 2006 "La lavar" 4 Memín Pinguín No. 10 February 6 2006 "Secreto" 5 Memín Pinguín No. 11 February 13 2006 "Maracas" 6 Memín Pinguín No. 12 February 20 2006 "Hospital" 7 Memín Pinguín No. 13 February 27 2006 "Detenido" 8 Memín Pinguín No. 14 March 6 2006 "Fuga" 9 Memín Pinguín No. 15 March 13 2006 "Incomunicado" The run appeared less than a year after the Mexican postal service issued five Memín stamps in 2005. The stamps prompted criticism from the White House Jesse Jackson and other American commentators while Mexican officials and many domestic readers defended the character as a familiar cultural figure. Scholars have used the dispute to examine the different histories of racial classification in Mexico and the United States as well as the limited visibility of Afro Mexican communities within national narratives of mestizaje. The present sequence records how Grupo Editorial Vid continued to market Memín through slapstick school and domestic situations while the covers retained the blackface derived physiognomy at the center of the controversy. Moderate rubbing handling creases edge wear and occasional surface soiling; bindings intact and issues complete as examined. Overall good condition. A consecutive publishing record of how a midcentury Mexican comic stereotype remained commercially active after becoming the focus of a bilateral debate over race and representation. unknown
1967ref. 237191967. Black HistoryComics 1960s Guyanese comic book by an early influential Black cartoonist. Seymour Rudy. The Preacher Meets Big Mama: Part 2. Georgetown British Guyana: All in Pictures ca. 1967. First edition. Scarce. Illustrated throughout with black-and-white cartoon panels. Original pictorial wrappers printed in black and red on pale blue stock. A rare early work by Samuel Rudolph "Rudy" Seymour widely regarded as the father of Guyanese comics. This installment blends Christian moralism with Afro-Caribbean folklore in a visually arresting local comic format. Rudy Seymour was one of the earliest creators of locally produced comic books in Guyana whose illustrated narratives reflected and shaped mid-20th century Guyanese visual culture. In The Preacher Meets Big Mama Seymour depicts a confrontation between a Christian preacher and "Big Mama" a feared spiritualist figure with ties to Obeah a syncretic Afro-Caribbean spiritual system. The plot follows the preacher's attempt to rescue a boy from Big Mama's cult culminating in scenes of ritualistic sacrifice demonic invocation and divine intervention. The narrative unfolds in vernacular Guyanese Creole grounding the story in a distinctly local idiom. Seymour's stark expressive linework animates themes of good versus evil colonial Christianity versus ancestral spiritual knowledge and gendered power structures. While the portrayal of Big Mama leans into negative colonial stereotypes casting her as a devil-worshipper the comic simultaneously elevates Afro-Caribbean spiritual conflict to the central stage of popular print culture. Seymour's broader contributions to Caribbean arts extended beyond this title; his pioneering comics inspired future generations and played a foundational role in developing the graphic arts in Guyana. He continued illustrating through the 1970s and remained a cultural fixture until his passing in 2020. Minor wear to spine and covers; interior pages lightly toned but well-preserved and tightly bound. Overall very good condition. A mid-century Caribbean comic documenting a formative moment in Black diasporic graphic storytelling and the postcolonial negotiation of identity faith and resistance in Guyanese print media. unknown
1957ref. 232581957. ComicsPolitical ActivismLatin America Archive of five issues of Argentine anti-authoritarian sci-fi comic El Eternauta by Héctor Germán Oesterheld printed in Hora Cero anthologies 1957-59. El Eternauta is widely regarded as one of the most important works in Latin American comics combining speculative science fiction with social commentary and a distinctly Argentine setting. The story follows a small group of survivors navigating a mysterious extraterrestrial invasion that devastates Buenos Aires. Its narrative of collective resistance survival and moral responsibility became foundational to Argentine graphic storytelling and later assumed additional historical resonance through Oesterheld's political activism during Argentina's military dictatorship. The author was kidnapped and "disappeared" along with his daughters for his anti authoritarian activities under the late 1970s military junta. The December 1957 installment opens with five bombers over a city devastated by the deadly snowfall while the 1958 and 1959 installments move through Plaza del Congreso Calle Callao and the invaders' command structure under the running banner "Una cita con el futuro." . This scarce archive includes: 1 Oesterheld Héctor G.; Solano López Francisco. Hora Cero. Suplemento Semanal. No. 17. Buenos Aires: Editorial Frontera 25 de diciembre de 1957. A lethal transparent snowfall has annihilated life in Buenos Aires and that Juan and the surviving group witness five bombers after losing their truck and Pablo. 2 Oesterheld Héctor G.; Solano López Francisco. Hora Cero. Suplemento Semanal. No. 68. Buenos Aires: Editorial Frontera 17 de diciembre de 1958. Orange and black cover with soldiers advancing through smoke. Juan Favalli and Franco meet a young woman who says the invading force is concentrated in Plaza Congreso and that it can be destroyed if they reach it. 3 Oesterheld Héctor G.; Solano López Francisco. Hora Cero. Suplemento Semanal. No. 71. Buenos Aires: Editorial Frontera 7 de enero de 1959. Blue and black cover with helmeted troops approaching a bunker line. After witnessing the invaders' shock forces along Calle Callao and nearing Plaza del Congreso Franco halts Juan and Favalli and leads them through the interior of nearby houses. 4 Oesterheld Héctor G.; Solano López Francisco. Hora Cero. Suplemento Semanal. No. 74. Buenos Aires: Editorial Frontera 28 de enero de 1959. Pink and black cover with silhouetted soldiers and a large close profile of a sweating combatant. Bombers from other latitudes attack Plaza del Congreso to destroy the invaders' general headquarters bringing down many aircraft but also blasting the "manos" robots and gurbos below. 5 Oesterheld Héctor G.; Solano López Francisco. Hora Cero. Suplemento Semanal. No. 103. Buenos Aires: Editorial Frontera 19 de agosto de 1959. Lacking cover; the surviving issue retains the imprint panel "Hora Cero / Año III / Numero 103." The survivors find a way to strike decisively following a dark-eyed young woman toward the invasion's command post while counting on grenades and the panic of the "manos" once their internal terror gland is triggered. Oesterheld's narrative departs from traditional adventure comics by emphasizing collective action rather than a single heroic protagonist portraying ordinary civilians organizing survival and resistance. The later political charge attached to the serial after Oesterheld's kidnapping and disappearance under the last Argentine dictatorship gives added weight to these original printings but the story itself was already rooted in anti-Authoritarianism presenting military pressure and a collective struggle against greater power. Moderate toning and handling wear throughout; scattered creasing edge wear and small losses to covers; issue no. 103 lacking cover; several covers with penciled or inked prices and markings. Overall good condition. unknown

1958ref. 227751958. Latino Comics Oesterheld Héctor Germán Hora Cero Suplemento Semanal. Buenos Aires: Editorial Frontera 3 consecutive issues from November 12 to November 26 1958. Oblong 8vo. Original color pictorial wrappers. Text in Spanish. A consecutive three-issue run of Hora Cero Suplemento Semanal These 3 consecutive issues are part of the original first serialization of Héctor G. Oesterheld and Francisco Solano López's El Eternauta published by Editorial Frontera during the golden age of Argentine comics. El Eternauta is a foundational work of Latin American science fiction created by writer Héctor Germán Oesterheld and artist Francisco Solano López. The story begins in Buenos Aires where a mysterious lethal snowfall kills most of the population. The protagonist Juan Salvo and his friends survive by using makeshift protective suits to find others. They eventually join a resistance group fighting against the alien invaders. El Eternauta is a potent political allegory that explores themes of solidarity resistance and the threat of authoritarianism. Its social and political messaging is considered part of its enduring legacy First appearing in Hora Cero from 1957-1959 Oesterheld's humanist script emphasizing collective heroism over individualism was recognized as a veiled critique of authoritarianism and the military rule a theme that became tragically prophetic when the author himself was "disappeared" along with his two pregnant daughters under the late 1970s military junta. This archive includes 3 of the first appearance in print of Eternauta original story in the late 1950s including one of the few Hora Cero issues with an Eternauta related art cover. 1 Hora Cero Suplemento Semanal November 12 1958. Buenos Aires: Editorial Frontera. This issue continues the Eternauta's tense progression as Salvo's small group barricaded in suburban Buenos Aires confronts the toxic snow and constructs improvised protective suits. López's art fuses expressionist shading with cinematic framing to evoke claustrophobic dread. 2 Hora Cero Suplemento Semanal November 19 1958. Buenos Aires: Editorial Frontera. A scarce and highly sought issue notable for the iconic panel of Juan Salvo and Professor Favalli observing missiles streaking across the Buenos Aires skyline a visual metaphor for modern warfare and unseen domination. This image would become one of the most enduring in Argentine graphic art reproduced in later reprints and academic studies as emblematic of Cold War anxiety within Latin American modernity. 3 Hora Cero Suplemento Semanal November 26 1958. Buenos Aires: Editorial Frontera. Depicts the survivors' first direct engagement with the alien "cascarudos" revealing the invaders' mechanized terror and the beginnings of organized human resistance. Oesterheld's dialogue increasingly blurs the line between science fiction and existential parable while López's kinetic illustrations heighten the tragic momentum. Light toning and small edge chips; center staples firm covers fragile but intact interiors supple and complete. Overall very good condition. Sets preserving consecutive issues from Hora Cero's 1950s serialization are scarce as the fragile newsprint format led to low survival rates. unknown
