1[[http://www.tortugasradioactivas.com/404/ Cuatrocientos Cuatro]], also known as '''Cuatro-cero-cuatro''' or just '''404''' (four-0-four) is a Spanish webcomic written and drawn by ''Albert "Koopa" González''. This webcomic could be defined as the Spanish equivalent to ''Webcomic/{{Xkcd}}'': geek jokes with barely no continuity, it uses Maths, Physics, wordplays and memes for its humor.

3This comic first began in a Fotolog account, where Albert showed his first jokes involving his friends, Science jokes and impossible wordplays in Spanish. Then it moved to its own website, ditching the previous material and bringing new jokes.

5Despite having no actual continuity, in his old strips Albert created a superhero called Capitán Cerumen (Captain Earwax) able to use the wax from his ears to fight evil. In the beginning of his new strips, he created a group of superheroes (Taxidermista) starring famous scientists Ohm, Faraday and Schrödinger, along with Microsoft's infamous assisstant Clippit and A.D.A, a female AI. They had villains such as El Demostrador (The Demonstrator), though they weren't around for long.
