Netflix is turning one classic Argentinian comic book into a TV series
As a seasoned gamer and comic book enthusiast who has traversed countless galaxies, realms, and timelines, I can confidently say that “The Eternaut” is a rare gem that truly stands out from the crowd. Having immersed myself in the rich tapestry of Argentinian comics, I’ve come to appreciate the depth and brilliance of Hector German Oesterheld’s work, particularly his masterpiece, “The Eternaut.
“One of Argentina’s most renowned comic books, titled ‘The Eternaut,’ was written by Hector German Oesterheld with illustrations by Francisco Lopez. Originally published as ‘El Eternauta,’ this comic series ran from 1957 to 1959.
The narrative trailed Juan Salvo and his companions as they engaged in a battle against an extraterrestrial onslaught that decimated much of the planet Earth. These aliens remain a puzzling entity, seldom appearing and largely unbeknownst to humankind.
Lopez’s artistry is breathtakingly alive, even in black-and-white. Notably, Oesterheld is famously recognized for “The Eternaut,” an exceptional work that stands out among his other masterpieces like “Mort Cinder.” Now, it’s slated to be adapted into a television series.
Netflix’s The Eternaut arrives in 2025
In 2025, Netflix will introduce “The Eternaut” to their collection, categorizing it as Argentinian Sci-Fi TV. This much-anticipated moment has been long overdue, as the original comic was once deemed unfilmable due to its ambitious scope and previous attempted adaptations that never came to fruition. Now, Netflix is aiding in making this dream a reality.
A poster has been revealed along with the 2025 release window, featuring Juan Salvo in his iconic isolation suit. The suit is blue, which is new to this adaptation. Little else is known save for some of the stars, including Ricardo Darin.
Taking on “The Eternaut” is quite an ambitious move by Netflix. However, given its exceptional source material, there’s a strong possibility that this could become one of the most outstanding comic book adaptations ever made. The original content stands out, promising to offer a truly distinctive experience among comic book adaptations.
This unique comic book boasts an unmatched quality, and the upcoming TV series is expected to maintain that standard. The intricate world-building and memorable characters created by Oesterheld are unlike anything else out there. Indeed, it seems that Netflix could be on the verge of presenting one of the most exceptional comic book shows in history.
