Macanudo (comic)

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.

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
• The man who translates movie titles
• 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
• Johnson and his friend, a little blue bird
• Pablo Picasso
• Alfio, the troglodyte ball
• The hermit from the mountain
• The man that waits
