Those years of the Spanish political transition to democracy represent the greatest moment of modern Spanish political cartoon, which in fact was born in the late Franco era against dictatorship, its men and its ideology. This cartoon was extended and developed after the death of General Franco and in the early years of the reign of Juan Carlos de Borbón. The left wing parties, the trade unions classes, the armed organizations like ETA and FRAP, the neighborhood associations and every kind of faction opposite to the regime, and also the extreme right wing, discovered the expressive possibilities of the cartoon, and its value like validity as a vehicle in the propaganda war and used it against the heirs of Franco. This paper reviews and analyses a selection of all kinds of clandestine pamphlets: newsletters, pamphlets, propaganda leaflets and even genuine political comics that were made and broadcast from 1973 to 1978. All contextualized within the framework of the major historical events of that period. It shows a new way of researching the Spanish political cartoon from a perspective that had never been studied before.Downloads
