Very good comic about famous singer Carlos Gardel, author of many popular tango songs. He is a man of mystery in a kind of way, for there are disputes about his nationality and birth date. Comic itself doesn't offer realistic portrayal of him, but in artistic sense shows how he became Argentinian national hero when he died in aeroplane crash. Carlos loved only his mother, and is believed that he had only one lover. There are some conspiracy theories that he was assasinated. As always, Carlos Sampayo artwork is excellent and there are indeed some fascinating images.
