Mexican
Comics
Like many comic book heroes (including DC's Blackhawks), The Howlers
were published in Spanish, both in reprints of their American adventures
and in original stories.
"It happens
that in the early 70's La Preens, the publisher of Mexican
versions of the Marvel comics, started to publish adventures
written and drawn by their Mexican staff. This is the case
of The Blackhawks, Amazing Spider-man & Sgt Fury, among
others. In the case of Sgt Fury starting with issue 105 which
is a reprint, the original versions started to alternate
with reprints and with the editions made in Mexico.
Not counting
the 18 issues of Captain Savage, if issue # 1 (Mexican) =
#1 USA and issue #187 (Mexican) = issue #110 you can figure
out how many were produced in Mexico. In fact, believe it
or not, more than 400 issues and at least ten Yearbooks
were published in Mexico."
