Denuncia

    (4 Editories, 1978-1989)

Denuncia was a Mexican comic book series published by 4 Editores from the late 1970s through the 1980s, notable for its crime‑drama focus and sensational storytelling. Issues often ran close to 96 pages in small digest format, printed in black and white with occasional color covers. The series mixed illustrated narratives with text-heavy accounts, presenting lurid tales of corruption, violence, and social injustice that mirrored real-life scandals and urban anxieties of the time.

Produced in Spanish for a mass audience, Denuncia became one of the more recognizable titles in Mexico’s wave of adult-oriented comics, standing alongside similar publications like Delito and Extraño. Its longevity—spanning hundreds of issues—reflected both the appetite for gritty, melodramatic content and the role of comics as popular journalism in Mexico’s cultural landscape. By blending illustration with exposé-style narratives, Denuncia carved out a niche as a hybrid between pulp entertainment and social commentary, cementing its place in the country’s historieta tradition.
