El Eternauta ("The Eternaut") is the most famous Argentinian Comic, (alongside Mafalda, of course. And maybe Cybersix, assuming people remember it was an Argentinian comic book). It was first published in a weekly basis from 1957 to 1959 in the Hora Cero magazine, scripted by Héctor Germán Oesteheld and featuring art by Francisco Solano López.The story is set about a decade into the future where a deadly snowfall suddenly strikes. The protagonist - who along with his family and a few friends was sheltered safely at home - must then try to survive in the new desolate and hostile environment: finding rations to live, avoiding all contact with this fluorescent snow that kills everything it comes in contact with, and, most importantly, battling fear, desperation and the potential threat of fellow human survivors. As the story progresses, the real cause of the snowfall is revealed and the protagonist is quickly drafted into a makeshift resistance army.There is a sequel, made in 1976-77, which is a bit Darker and Edgier, and mostly regarded quite a good comic but not as brilliant as the original. There was later a third installment, known for lack of endorsement by the original authors, with Oesterheld being already dead and hired writers and artists who remained anonymous at the time. Starting in The '90s, a lot of other sequels and homages, both official and unofficial, were released, cementing it as an important part of Argentine pop culture. Solano López eventually created the Universo Eternauta brand ("Eternaut Universe") in order to publish both new and old (with bonus material) stories.Plans for making The Movie have been tossed around for decades. It was announced on 2020 that a television series was being produced by Netflix and directed by renowned filmmaker Bruno Stagnaro. The series will adapt the story to our contemporary setting instead of 1950s Buenos Aires, and is currently set to be released by Netflix on 2022.There are translations to English, French and Italian, Italy being a country where El Eternauta hit it bigtime and a major reason for the sequel being made. Besides Argentina, the last original edition is available in Spain too.List of publications: El Eternauta, First Part: (1957) By Oesterheld and Solano López. The original that started it all, made purely of awesome. Regularly reprinted, with 2007's 50th Anniversary edition being a standout. El Eternauta, Remake: (1969) By Oesterheld and Breccia. This included several drastic changes to the storyline, which coupled with Breccia's weird and experimentalist approach arose an uproar from the fans. Consequently, it got rushed up. It's not merely that the alien invaders are depicted as The Empire, a certain somebody even helps them and all! El Eternauta: Segunda Parte: (1976) By Oesterheld and Solano López. A direct, Darker and Edgier sequel. Drops most of the six hundred and seventeen different themes present in the first part in favor of a more direct and arguably leftist message. Generally considered at least a worthy sequel. Last work by Oesterheld before his forced disappearance. El Eternauta, Third Part: (1983) By Ongaro, Morhain and Oswal. A controversial, radically different sci-fi comic, reusing the characters in some uninspired setting. It was not aproved by the surviving author at the time. El Eternauta, The Repentant World: (1997) By Maiztegui and Solano López. Featuring talking cows. El Eternauta, The Cosmic Hatred: (1998) By Muñoz, Barreiro, Taborda and Rearte. El Eternauta, Returns: (2003) By Maiztegui and Solano López. El Eternauta, The Calling Dog and Other Stories: (2010) By Kern, Solano López and others.WARNING: Roaring Rampage of Spoilers ahoy! | |

Zee Rust: Alien technology seems quite outdated and camp-material, but, well, the same thing happens with just any Sci-Fi comic of that decade. Actually, put in context, some thingamajigs still look pretty cool and/or deadly. The trope runs very straight for the futuristic Buenos Aires of the third part. | |

Robinsonade: Referenced repeatedly by Juan Salvo at the beginning of the story, as quoted on this page. Oesterheld explained that he was a fan of Daniel Defoe and Jules Verne and had started El Eternauta as his own version of Robinson Crusoe; but that the story did not stay that way for long. | |

Aliens in Cardiff | |
| El Eternauta (Comic Book) / int_5c446b43 | comment |
Aliens in Cardiff: Even in Argentina itself, when first published. Most comic books available were translations of comics from the US, and even the Argentine comics were used to set things in the US, just because that was what readers were used to read. Since then, Argentine comics set in Buenos Aires became common. | |

| El Eternauta (Comic Book) / int_638b65bc | comment |
Armor Is Useless: static defensive tactics never end well in this universe, and Tank Goodness is a consistently averted trope due to giant indestructible mind-controlled monsters with an appetite for tanks and extremely advanced BFG tech.

Badass Normal: Most of the main characters are just common middle-class Buenos Aires citizens. However, when the shit hits the fan they discover they were much more resourceful that they thought, and actually pretty badass, particularly Franco. It also must be noticed that the militiamen fight without order but, with some exceptions, they are consistently brave and loyal. | |

Appeal to Force: Nuclear strategic missiles from some superpower from the North fall over Buenos Aires.

Rock Beats Laser | |
| El Eternauta (Comic Book) / int_79974fb8 | comment |
Rock Beats Laser: Literally justified and used, as River Plate stadium is chosen because the big concrete walls are the best cover against the heat rays. Metaphorically averted, as alien tech is too big (although somewhat mundane) to be fighted straightly with seemingly "primitive" weapons (tanks, conventional artillery, even nuclear weapons). But if the tech itself is not absolute, the intelligent tactics of the Manos are. | |

Of course, as it turn out they are all but controlled pawns of Eldritch Abominations. Averted partially, since they die in great numbers, are treated with disdain by the professional officers and they all suffer a Fate Worse than Death except for Salvo and his family. It is also a Justified Trope, since in both parts there is no professional army to rely on. | |

Big Blackout | |
| El Eternauta (Comic Book) / int_c253090a | comment |
Big Blackout: The first consequence of the snow, besides the deaths, was a general blackout. Even phones were caught by it. | |

Get a Hold of Yourself, Man! | |
| El Eternauta (Comic Book) / int_c87660d5 | comment |
Get A Hold Of Yourself Man: The radio dashed the gang's hopes: there will be no rescue. No in the short term, at least. Lucas began to lose it: everything will run out, and they will die like rats! Juan cried the names of Elena and Martita. So Favalli halted it: yes, circumstances are bleaker than they thought, but they can still survive if they keep cool heads. Let's build a hazard suit to protect themselves against the snow, and gather resources. | |

Nothing Is Scarier | |
| El Eternauta (Comic Book) / int_cdfe12c3 | comment |
Nothing Is Scarier: The crash? Just a mundane car crash. The sudden blackout? A fuse. The first thing that made the gang realize that something was wrong was the sudden silence. All the noises you can hear in a city, even at night, suddenly stopped. | |

Red Herring | |
| El Eternauta (Comic Book) / int_dbca2c99 | comment |
Red Herring: The gang hears in the radio about a nuclear test that produced massive ammounts of radioactive dust, which is being spread by the wind. When the snowing starts, they suspect it's the radioactive dust. Needless to say, it isn't. Not by a long shot. | |

Ridiculously Human Robots: TERRIFYINGLY Human Robots, since the Manos use a device that, inserted in the spine of a human, transforms his nervous system into a living puppet used to kill or capture more humans. You know... for kids! | |

Talking the Monster to Death | |

Talking the Monster to Death: The information obtained by Juan Salvo from the first Hand and how they are actually being controlled by a fear gland probes to be massively useful later on trough the series. Professor Favalli manages to be the first to weaponize this knowledge and it's as awesome as it sounds. | |

Shown Their Work | |
| El Eternauta (Comic Book) / int_ffad4e9f | comment |
Shown Their Work: a great deal of the success of El Eternauta was due to the lavishing depictions of Buenos Aires Solano made, with landmarks as Plaza Italia, Estadio Monumental, Zoológico Municipal or the Congress Building being invaded and devastated by aliens. The different ethnic and social types of Argentina, the decoration, cars, guns, just everything is extremely accurate, in order to make the invasion trope very real, and the perspective of this 20 Minutes into the Future scenario more dreadful for the 1950's reader. | |
