Macanudo

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Macanudo is an Argentine daily comic strip by the cartoonist Liniers. It is published in the newspaper La Nación. It appears on the last page of the paper. Just like Liniers' previous strip, Bonjour, Macanudo is very experimental and deals with meta humor.

[edit] Characters

Macanudo generally follows a nonlinear plot line, but several characters frequently recur:

Enriqueta, a little girl
Madariaga, her teddy bear
Fellini, her cat and confidant
Z-25, the sensible robot
The duendes, a group of fantastic creatures
Penguins
Oliverio the Olive
Yellow thing and Blue thing, two abstract beings that appear together
The mysterious man in black
Liniers himself, both as a human and as an anthropomorphized rabbit
Lorenzo and Teresita, a human couple
