Captain America in Mexico


Captain America comics from Mexico! All in Spanish, of course! This series looks to have started in 1968 (interesting that these put an actually day of release on the title) and feature the late TALES OF SUSPENSE stories and then move into the new Cap book when he separated out from Iron Man with #100.

La Prensa was the publisher of many Marvel looks in the 1960s and early 1970s, reprinting their American counterparts only in black and white and for a peso (that isn't an American dollar you see as the price). These books are always tough to find in decent condition and this series seems to have gone at least to issue #29 in 1971. Another company would start publishing Marvel in Mexico a few years after that.
