Chico Bento Moço (Werewolf Transformation)

In issue 36 of this popular Brazilian comic, the town is terrorized by a rampaging werewolf (lobisomem in Portuguese). The hero (the titular Chico) attempts to capture the beast but doesn't realize the werewolf is...himself!

  1. I am sad there's no english version of this comic, not even a fan translation, cause the art is very cute.

    1. They talk with a countryside accent, so I roughly tried to maintain some of it in the translation:
      Chico: Y'know if something threatens my loved ones...
      ...I turn into a beast!
      *knock knock*
      Wait! I'll open!
      Zé: Eiii, easy!
      I came to return your frying pan!
      Maybe You'll need it to make an omelette or...
      Chico? Why're you starin' at me like that?
      Rosinha: It's not at you, Zé, it's at the moon!
      Zé: Damn! Get outta there, Rosinha!
      Rosinha: Chico!
      Oh my God!
      *tf ensures*

  2. Glad you liked it! This was very hard to track down--Brazilian shopping websites are almost impossible for foreigners to use, but I found that a fan had been photographing his copies and uploading them to ISSU.
