As an argentinian, this is a really sad day for me and for the rest of the country, you can tell in the /r/argentina subreddit today which has been absolutely flooded with comics from him to remember his work, you don't need to know spanish to understand his work because he was a genius in semiology, there was no reason for words. I even named one my cats Mafalda 8 years ago in his honor for making my youth fantastic while reading his comics. He will be missed, RIP Quino.

It was felt very strongly here in Spain, too. I have a giant Mafalda compilation book on a shelve next to me, I practically learn to read with those strips since my parents already had them by the time I was born. Along with Les Luthiers recordings, it's one of the few cases where my parent's preferences were completely transferable to me because it really transcends their time, you don't really need a lot of generational context to connect.
