Que decir del eternauta. Obrs halagada por todo el pais, no decepciono. Entre mas que nada por leer una de las grande sobras de Argentina pero al toqu me enganche en la historia, con los personajes y con el gran misterio de que estaba pasando. 
Me encanto como llevan la trama, hay muchos giros y revelaciones que no te esperas. Estas todo el timepo querienfo ssber que es lo proximo a lo que se van a enfrentar y como resolveran cada situacion. Y el final, aunque es medio abierto, tambien me parecio increible. 
Me pareció muy fuerte como, lo peor que le hacen los otros a nuestros protagonistas, es la guerrilla psicologica, en donde les ofrecen siempre un grano de esperanza aunque no haya forma de ganar esa guerra. Muy notable teniendo en cuenya la epoca en la que se escribio.


Realmente todo el mundo deberia leerlo, espero que con la serie se acerque mas gente. A mi todsvia me queda verla


A completed collection of a serial sci-fi comic from a very specific time (60's Cold War) and place (Buenos Aires). The story can be a bit disjointed and repetitive, though that likely goes with the medium so I forgive it. Anxious, hopeful, human. The moments of suspense had me stressed (good).

I was inspired to look this graphic novel up after watching the Netflix series. I never realized how iconic this sci-fi story was. Granted, I'm not Argentinian but it also drew me to read it because it was from a Latino writer. I really enjoyed the story. Vastly different from the show and I understand the need to update it for modern times. This is truly a fantastic allegory about the Cold War and authoritarian regimes that arose as a result of two superpowers trying to gain influence in the geopolitics of it all. Very glad my library had a copy since I had a tough time looking for places that sell it.
