A really obscure piece of Spanish Russophilia/erotica. I used to have this one:

Now the last thing I want is to turn revleft into 4chan, so it'd be pointless for me to dig up the rest of this comic. Let me just say that if this cover offends you, you'll probably not want to see the rest of it.
In any case, I was wondering if anyone knew anything about these comics. Why they were made, or why the artist went all russophilic. Also, if the artist is Italian, why are the comics in Spanish?
And maybe we could get a feminist perspective, too. Is this exoticizing the "other" within the context of cold war politics? What's going on here?
