The object
It had stopped the year before in Argentina (September 2014), where it was simultaneously published in a young persons supplement called No in the newspaper Página/12. Over 1,000 episodes of the comic strip were also published in the Italian magazine Skorpio. French, German, Greek and Croatian translations were also made. The series has been compiled periodically into albums, and is considered one of the most important works of the three creators. The central character is the prostitute Clara, and the cartoon reflects her amusing adventures and misadventures as a sex worker, along with the peculiar characters that get involved with her and her son Pablito.

Controversy
Controversy
Clara became one of the most popular characters of El Jueves, with a large following of fans who saw in her the idealisation of a woman; a libertine, independent and attractive.Despite this success in both in the Spanish and Argentine press, the comic had been the target of strong criticism and denunciations for alleged sexist and degrading content. However, in recent years, the comic's has been republished in new editions, keeping the character alive within both Spanish and Argentinian pop culture.

Description
Clara de noche was a humorous series of erotic cartoons. Initially it was produced in black and white but later in color, and covered two pages. It recounts the adventures of a prostitute called Clara Fernandez, and her relationship with clients. Other characters include her very clever son Pablito and her friend Virtudes. Clara's physical appearance is clearly inspired by the famous American bondage model and pin-up, Bettie Page.
