Original comic art created by Lopez for his masterpiece "L'Eternauta", published for the first time in the supplement of the periodical Hora Cero Semanal n. 30 in 1957. Page 118 of the saga created by Héctor Oesterheld, which has become one of the milestones of modern comics. One of the most pathos scenes of the entire story in which we see the protagonist Juan Salvo despairing over the tragic fate that seems to await his wife Elena and his daughter Marta, two cartoons of this panel were published in the volume "Donde esta Oesterheld?" published by Lo Scarabeo in 2002. Metaphor and tragic forerunner of the Argentine political situation which would shortly lead to dictatorship, L'Eternauta has become a symbol of civil revolt and intellectual independence, which cost its author his life when in April In 1977 Oesterheld was picked up by a Death Squadron and thus became part of the large group of Argentine desaparecidos. Small tear at the top left corner.
