Macanudo is an Argentine daily comic strip by the cartoonist Liniers. It is published since 2002 in the newspaper La Nación. It appears on the last page of the paper. Just like Liniers' previous strip, Bonjour, Macanudo is very experimental and deals with meta humor. It has been considered very popular.
Macanudo generally follows a nonlinear plot line, but several characters frequently recur:
Henrietta (Enriqueta), a little girl who reads a lot, and has a large imagination, her confidant Fellini, a sneaky black cat, and Mandelbaum (Madariaga), her teddy bear .
The man who translates movie titles, Who's comics often compare to reality.
Z-25, the sensitive robot.
The duendes (Elves), a group of fantastic creatures often likened to cause superstitions.
Penguins, compared to humanity on several occasions.
Oliverio the Olive, Designed to imply a view of the world
The boy Martincito and his imaginary friend Olga.
Yellow thing and Blue thing, two abstract beings that appear together
The mysterious man in black
Liniers himself, both as a human and as an anthropomorphized rabbit
Lorenzo and Teresita, a human couple
Johnson and his friend Carlitos, a little blue bird
Pablo Picasso

The hermit from the mountain
José Luis, the unhappy man
