El Eternauta/Fridge

Fridge Horror

 * This troper found himself horrified right after the first battle against the cascarudos (beetles), at the rondabout, when Salvo, Favalli and the rest of the militaries move along. The author then proceedes to name some distinctive buildings and locations when the characters passes by them. One of them is the Escuela Mecánica de la Armada, which was, from 1957 (when the story was written) to 1983, one of the most important military buildings of Argentina, so to speak. Exactly thirty years later, the author Héctor Germán Oesterheld was carried there during the last Argentinian dictatorship (then, and now euphemistically, called "National Reorganization Process"), which is infamous for the dissapearence of people by arresting them illegaly, extreme physical and phsychological torture and illegal executions. Extra points for you if you know about the tortures enforced there and in every other illegal detention center; drowning, raping, fusillade simulations, burial in mass graves, electric shockes in genitals while tied up to a table, birth and appropiation of babies born while their mothers were in captivity (which didn't earned them any special treatment). And the very next year, his four daughters, which were probably as young as you reading this, were also illegally arrested, sistematically tortured and dissapeared like his father, one of them while being pregnant and other being mother of a baby. The grandson born in captivity was rescued by Elsa Sánches, Oesterheld's widow, while the other was raised by the father's grandparents.
 * From El Eternauta: The whole premise of the travelling through time and space seems really cool from the very beginning... If you don't think too hard on it.  On the other hand, the same thing happened to , both also drifting through the many continuums of timespace together... hopefully. So Salvo faces the tragic condition of  . Needless to say, he holds onto the hope that he will find both, asking for them to every single creature he finds. ... In a way... or does he?. Don't ask me.
