Almanaque do Recruta Zero

A brief, three-issue Brazilian comic series from Editora Globo, Almanaque do Recruta Zero (1989–1991) collected reprints of the classic American newspaper strip Beetle Bailey, centered on the misadventures of the perpetually lazy private at Camp Swampy. While no specific creators are named in the available facts, the series served as a localized, digest-sized introduction to Mort Walker’s long-running humor strip for Portuguese-speaking readers. Its limited run makes it a niche but charming footnote in the international history of the character.
