The object
The object
It first appeared in 1985 in the São Paulo newspaper Folha, when its creator won a contest for new comic artists. The strip is usually about animals. The episodes feature both one-time characters (from protozoans to dinosaurs), and a regular cast of characters, whose leader is Níquel Náusea. Humans also appear occasionally. A few of the characters' names embody specific jokes: for instance, the name of the character "Flit" (a drug-abusing cockroach, who enjoys insecticides, and is Níquel's best friend) is originally a brand name for an insecticide spray. The name of the rat "Rato Ruter" comes from the American company Roto-Rooter, which specializes in clearing clogged drains.
