Eternity is a comic, but it is not a comic book any. It 's the story of the invasion of Earth by hostile aliens, but not the usual history of science fiction. The Lord was developed in the present (indeed, from our point of view, in the past) as a dramatic story, full of twists, in which - in a few glimmers of light - traveling in the night man. It 's a cartoon is disconcerting, it was full of chilling prophecies. Written by the great Hector G. Oesterheld and drawn by Francisco Solano Lopez, and Eternity was published between 1957 and 1959 on Hora Cero Semanal, Argentina. In Italy it was published by Lanciostory, and that's where I have known and loved. The story winds through snow that kill (as happened in Chernobyl, but twenty years later), among men who disappear into thin air (which recalls the drama of the disappeared Argentine and involving the same Oestereheld, four daughters and three kinds, all disappeared in June 1977), between stages used as concentration camps (as it then happened with the coup in Chile in 1973), with a final surprising and shocking. The Eternauta tells of ordinary men turned into heroes by the circumstances, the value of freedom and dignity man, of great force of love and affection for your loved ones, friends. It affects more than all the despair of many glossy
memorable characters (among them, Juan Galvez, the main character), aware of the inevitable end, yet still capable of fighting without rest for what they believe and who care. Like a bit 'to many of us, young men of this amazed that nothing falls down slightly, day after day, but that does not raise your eyes and tilt your head, because this is the way - if we sense we can speak - of our brief presence on this planet. For the great Oesterheld and Lopez, who gave us other beautiful beads (referred to in other might say occasions) thanks for having given to millions of readers this masterpiece. The site, of Argentina, is here.
