History ComicBook / Condorito

* BrokenAesop: Oh, where to begin? Always played for laughs, though.

* NakedPeopleAreFunny: Plenty of jokes involving people (male or female) losing their clothes, interrupted while taking a bath, stripping for a medical checkup or being observed while undressing, with the predictable and sometimes unpredictable results. And then we have the ones with girls posing nude for Condorito (who furiously tries to keep people away from his atelier) or the hilarious nudist camp jokes, where the point isn't showing eye candy but rather showing people trying to do normal chores or mundane activities while naked.

* NegativeContinuity: Due to the format of the magazine (where all stories are jokes and they take up usually one page, sometimes two or three and very rarely more), this is inevitable. Exaggerated by the fact that characters will constantly appear in different locales, time periods or outright displaying different personalities. Sometimes characters will even have different names and nationalities (such as Condor Otto being the titular character living in Germany while wearing stereotypical German clothing and speaking in a German accent), or even be variations of other fictional characters (such as Condorito sometimes being Franchise/{{Dracula}} and even Franchise/{{Superman}}).

* TheAlcoholic: Garganta de Lata ("Tin Throat") makes [[Franchise/TheSimpsons Barney Gumble]] look sober by comparison. Condorito himself also tended to be somewhat of a boozehound, but never to such a extent, and this aspect was dropped from his character by the late 1980s.

* FunnyBackgroundEvent: A sleepwalker about to fall into an uncovered manhole, a crocodile slowly crawling inside someone's house, or the picture of a soccer player kicking his ball out of the frame and later attempting to recover it and a laughing skull sitting on any doctor's desk are the most emblematic.

Its main character is an anthropomorphic condor living in a fictitious town named Pelotillehue — with the characteristics of any small Chilean town. Condorito is meant to be a [[{{Picaresque}} representation of the lower-class Chilean people:]] somewhat [[AntiHero irresponsible and always ready to party around, but also kind, friendly, savvy and loyal to his friends and loved ones.]]

The comic debuted in 1949 in the first issue of "Okey", a weekly anthology comics magazine in the form of one-page stories. In 1955, a compilation of Condorito's adventures was published as an independent comic book. From that moment on, Condorito had gained his own comic book, which is still published on a bi-weekly basis. Some of the ''Condorito'' comics have been republished for [[http://www.nuspel.org/spanish01.html students of Spanish as a second language]].

** Originally averted in Yayita's case, as René Ríos had forbidden his team of artists from giving her "sexy" attributes or flirting attitudes. After the author's death in 2000, Yayita immediately joined the fanservice and GagBoobs bandwagon.

* {{Gonk}}: Any middle aged woman, specially spinsters.

* BilingualAnimal: There's a joke where Washington (Condorito's pet dog) goes to an office for a job. The employer can't believe that an animal requests a human job, but Washington does ''every'' task made in the office, surprising the employer. Finally, when he sees his CV and asks if he's bilingual, Washington answers with a "meow meow."
