Mexican identity, comics, independent magazinesAbstract
Since it’s appearance in 1992, El gallito inglés was an independent magazine, managed by Víctor del Real. It issued some hispanic and latino american comic master’s work alongside the new generation of young mexican that made comic on the fringes of industry and predominant ideology. Though many of them developed in other publications, in El gallito inglés they were able to freely expound an esthetic approach that would redefine what's mexican by reevaluating its symbols. In the present work three comics from El gallito inglés are analized, in which Avrán, Luis Fernando and Clément transgress mexican iconography with rock, painting and cinema’s influence, to display a sort of post-mexican identity, shaped from the Free Trade Agreement and cultural globalization.
