Background

Scope and content:

This collection contains five copies of El Coyote written by José Mallorquí Figuerola and published by Cliper and Queromón. This Spanish-language Western saga follows César de Echagüe—a Mexican-Californian aristocrat who dons the persona "El Coyote" to defend justice in Alta California. The character's dual identity as both an elite and an outlaw draws on the tradition of Zorro and Robin Hood, while asserting a distinct Latinx identity.
