About the series
A short-lived but culturally significant Brazilian horror-comedy series from publisher Orbis, Sexta-Feira 13 (1954–1955) ran for just seven issues, blending supernatural scares with the playful, cartoonish art style of its era. Most associated with the work of artist and writer Jayme Cortez, the series is remembered as an early, influential example of homegrown horror comics in Brazil, predating the country's more famous terror titles by a decade. Its brief run captures a transitional moment in Brazilian comics, where imported genres were being adapted with a distinct local flavor.
