Alberto Breccia Enrique Breccia Hector Oesterheld

Writer

Alberto Breccia and Enrique Breccia (artists) and Héctor Germán Oesterheld (writer) collaborated on the 1968 comic biography Che. The work faced suppression under the Argentine military regime; Oesterheld was killed by the dictatorship in 1977, and the book's publication and survival are part of its history.

Alberto Breccia (1919–1993). Héctor Germán Oesterheld (1919–1977). Enrique Breccia (born 1945). Che was published in Argentina in 1968 and was later suppressed by the Argentine military regime; according to contemporary accounts, unsold copies and original panels were destroyed and a surviving copy was concealed and later resurfaced.

The review praises Che as an intense, unforgettable comic biography illustrated by Alberto and Enrique Breccia and scripted by Héctor Germán Oesterheld. It recounts the book's 1968 publication, subsequent suppression and burning under Argentina's military regime, and the survival of a single buried copy. The art is described as vibrant, wild and material in black and white; the script is detailed and at times verbose. The reviewer calls Che a must-read.

For:Readers of political and historical comics, fans of Latin American graphic novels, and those interested in censorship and art under dictatorship.

 Che: an adventure within an adventure.
