Virtually without exception the main characters, whether young or old, male or female, have no traces of Mexican Indian physical traits and in only a few instances could characters identify as mestizo (persons of mixed European and Indian ancestry). Although the creators of the comic politely but firmly declined to comment on their characters’ physical traits or on their motives for creating a largely non-mestizo world, clearly they did not intend to reproduce the ethnic and racial character of contemporary Mexico. If this realism had been their intent, the creators of Lágrimas would have populated the pages of the comic book with a more representative mix of European, mestizo, Mexican Indian characters.58
