Go To

  • Ensemble Dark Horse
    • Cénit, who even gained a couple of Spin-Off comic books where she's The Protagonist.
    • Sicario (aka Franklin Espinoza) also gained their own comic books after his First Appearance in Diablo's pages.
  • Germans Love David Hasselhoff: During the Turn of the Millennium, one of Diablo's creators, Mauricio Herrera, went to Mexico to live and test his luck as comic book creator, creating his own publishing, Berserker Comics, and carriying Diablo with him, re-releasing the original 12-issue run of Diablo and making Diablo: Crónicas, a Milestone Celebration for the 10th anniversary of its creation, aided for some Mexican artists and a couple of Chilean ones from the original run. The result: Mexicans loved Diablo and actually has good chunk of fans in this country.
  • Moral Event Horizon: After going Back from the Dead, Alex realizes he'll never have a normal life anymore.
  • One-Scene Wonder: Carla, the Unlucky Childhood Friend and Hooker with a Heart of Gold, who only appeared in the first and last numbers of the original run (even having focused on her on the latter), but who's integral part of Alex's story.
  • Signature Scene
    • In the first issue, when Diablo justices a father who beat up to the death to his child hanging him from the Entel Tower is one of the most iconic scenes in Chilean comic books ever. The quote on the main pic was said by Alex moments before the poor man got hanged.
    • Also in the final issue of the original run, the Badass Boast Alex said in the end of the page was accompanied of a Summoning Ritual when he fullfills the room (which was already full of mobsters meanwhile he was cornered and close to death) with nothing but demons who devours every single human in the room but Alex himself and an unconscious Carla, protecting her from them.
    • La Resistencia recently give us Alex's Final Battle look with a mask of La Tirana's devil and a Tetsuo Shima's red cowl.
  • What Do You Mean, It's Not for Kids?: Just like the appearance of anime during The '90s, this comic book was absolutely not for children, especially for the Gorn, a good chunk of almost nudity and strong language.
