Baldo is our first comic strip that features Latino characters and themes. Baldo lives with his parents and works at Auto Y Rod, Inc., selling car parts. Through his daily exploits in the world of girls, cars, and little sisters, readers will learn just how well they can identify with this teen. Writer Hector Cantú and artist Carlos Castellanos have given us a comic strip whose warmth and gentle humor will appeal to all.

Jaws2z said, 6 months ago
We have stores like this here in South Florida, naturally. Unfortunately, they usually have heavy metal bars over the windows and armed security guards outside.

Chihuahua cheese! Ooh, freshly made corn tortillas would be good too.
Carlos Castellanos said, 6 months ago
Jaws2z, OMG… could it be we shop the same stores?
The bars are for hurricane protection and the guards are there for the pastelitos and Cuban coffee.
CoolGuy2000- “wondows. software by an unknown flunky programmer.” Nice : )

This is demeaning to such a wonderful comic.

But would the customers call it “Yay-Mart”? Seems like an odd name for an “hispanic friendly” store.

I think that would be “Hota-Mart”!
Carlos Castellanos said, 6 months ago
whardin 1960 that’s the name you end up with when a store is created for Hispanics by non-Hispanics : )
Side note: While working on the Baldo animation series for Univision a while back, we were working on a funny gag that involved peanut butter, the main executive producer on the project said we couldn’t do that because Hispanics didn’t eat peanut butter.
What!?!?!? And here I was all these years… Who woulda thunk it?
By the way, if you haven’t seen the Baldo animation trailer, you can check it out here: http://cartooningpro.com/blog/creativity-in-motion/
Please leave a comment and let me know what you think.
