Abstract

This article discusses the production of the magazine O Tico-Tico, the longest publication of comics in Brazil. The magazine, which would have been 100 years old in October 2005, was characterized by a didactic-pedagogic position and by the dissemination of genuinely Brazilian comics products, giving to dozens of Brazilian artists the possibility of working on comics and also making possible the creation of several comic book characters.In the 1960s, out of date and suffering the competition of television, the magazine ceased its publication, remaining in the memory of its readers by its abnegation to a model of children education that puts the civism, the good morals and the religiosity in the first place.
