About the series
In the mid-1960s, Chilean publisher Zig-Zag launched Hazañas Historicas, an 18-issue comic series that dramatized key episodes from world history. The series was a showcase for the country's top comic talent, most notably the legendary artist Mario Igor, whose dynamic, detailed storytelling brought these historical tales to life. By blending educational content with the visual excitement of sequential art, the series stands as a notable early example of Latin American historical comics, offering a unique window into how Chile's comic industry approached both entertainment and pedagogy during that era.
