Default Carlos Zéfiro´s Brazilian Erotic Comic Books

Carlos Zéfiro´s Brazilian Erotic Comic Books





Carlos Zéfiro (1921-1992) was a Brazilian artist, author of erotic comics published in comic book format that became known as “catechisms”. Cheap and sold in secrecy on the newsstands those were probably the first contact with pornography by generations of young Brazilians in the 50s to the 70s, long before the imported magazines - called genericaly as "Swedish magazines"- were available.

Carlos Zéfiro (1921-1992), pseudonym of Alcides Aguiar Caminha, was born in São Cristóvão, Rio de Janeiro, on September 26, 1921. He was an employee of the Ministry of Labor in the Immigration Sector until his retirement. In 1946, at the age of 25, he married Serat Caminha, with whom he had five children.

Self-taught in drawing, he completed high school only when he was 58 years old, and began to make drawings inspired by romantic comics from Mexican photonovels. With no training in drawing, his comics were naive and inspired by romantic Mexican comics (published by Editormex whose stories had only two frames per page) and in pornographic photonovels of Swedish origin. The name Carlos Zéfiro was taken from a Mexican photo-novel author. For journalist Gonçalo Junior, Zefiro's catechisms have no relationship with the tijuana bibles, erotic comics published in the United States between the 1930s and 1950s, which used characters from cartoons, comics and even celebrities as protagonists.

In 1949, he published his first erotic pamphlet independently, encouraged by his friend Hélio Brandão, owner of a second-hand bookshop in Praça Tiradentes, in Rio de Janeiro. Hélio was in charge of arranging for the clandestine printing and distribution of the leaflets. To remain anonymous, he adopted the pseudonym Carlos Zéfiro, hiding the new activity from the family, as well as to escape censorship and keep his job, which, as a public servant, was subject to a Law which could punish any employee who committed it with dismissal. “scandalous public incontinence”.

Carlos Zéfiro made his drawings directly on tracing paper that were printed in a printing company. His comics were published in black and white in comic book form and sold on newsstands. With the success, his publications came to be called “catechisms” reaching a circulation of 30,000 copies and sold in several states.
In addition to his work as a draftsman, Alcides Caminha was also a composer, registered with the Ordem dos Músicos do Brasil and partnered with Guilherme de Brito and Nelson Cavaquinho, with whom he composed four sambas for Mangueira as “Notícia”, recorded by Roberto Silva and “A Flor e o Espinho”, recorded by Nelson Cavaquinho.
In 1970, during the military governments, an investigation was carried out in Brasília to discover the identity of the author of those pornographic works. As a result, his friend, editor Hélio Brandão was arrested for three days, but the investigation was not continued.
From the 1980s onwards, Zéfiro's comics began to be republished by publishers: Maricota, Record and Marco Zero. In 1991, a year before his death, Carlos Zéfiro came out of hiding after revealing his identity in the pages of Playboy magazine. That same year he participated in the 1st International Comics Biennale held in Rio de Janeiro. In 1992 he received the HQ-Mix Trophy, for the importance of his work.

In January 2011, Zéfiro's works were exhibited alongside other erotic comics from the rest of the world at the Museum of Sex, in New York. In March 2011, Zéfiro was the theme of the play "The catechisms according to Carlos Zéfiro" written and directed by Paulo Biscaia Filho. In October 2018, journalist Gonçalo Junior published the book Deus da Sacanagem – The life and time of Carlos Zéfiro (Noir Publishing).
