After the military coup of 1973, some Chilean cartoonists were censored by the military regime, yet unlike other publications (such as the Argentinian Mafalda), which combined criticism of society with humor, "Condorito", which lacked the former, continued to be published. Since that time, many Chilean comics with a political view on society ("e.g." Hervi's "Super Cifuentes") have been forgotten. "Condorito" remains the best-known Chilean comic book character.
