Ciência em Quadrinhos (1ª Série)

In the 1950s, Brazil’s Editora Brasil-América (EBAL) launched Ciência em Quadrinhos (1ª Série), a 32-issue educational comic series that made science accessible through sequential art. Running from 1953 to 1958, it stands as a pioneering example of using the comics medium to teach, reflecting EBAL’s broader mission to blend entertainment with learning. The series is remembered for its role in popularizing scientific knowledge in postwar Brazil, predating many similar global efforts.
