About & Translation Links

This blog will serve as an archive for the Zé Carioca translations I have done.

I make no claim about my translations being correct or super accurate. I do not speak Portuguese, but I am doing my best to translate.

None of these scans belong to me. Thank you to the wonderful people who scan their comics. You're heroes!
