About the series

A short-lived but distinctive Brazilian series from Editora Abril, O Gabola (1976–1977) ran for just six issues, centering on a charismatic, roguish anti-hero navigating a world of crime and adventure. Crafted with a gritty, humorous edge, the comic stands as a notable artifact of 1970s Brazilian pop culture, showcasing the publisher's willingness to experiment with morally complex protagonists outside the typical superhero mold. Its legacy lies in its cult status among collectors and historians of Latin American comics.
