El Eternauta es la primera novela gráfica en español y la más importante para el mundo hispanoamericano. Obra cumbre de la ciencia ficción, fue publicada originalmente en Argentina como una serie de 106 entregas desde 1957 a 1959, en la revista Hora Cero Semanal.

storia del gesto di un soldato nemico,

si' che nel cuore di Mel la vergogna potesse
piu' della paura...
