My daughter is learning Spanish, and she loves comic books. Is there a series of comic books that the community can recommend?

How old is she?
If she likes the newspaper-strip comics like Peanuts, the Argentine comic Mafalda by Quino is suitable for all ages.
«Speaking generally, it is because of the desire of the tragic poets for the marvellous that so varied and inconsistent an account of Medea has been given out» (Diodorus Siculus, The Library of History [4.56.1])
Mafalda, Macanudo, Dosis Diarias, Condorito, Gaturro, Ogu y Mampato are good humourous comicbooks. Sadly, Condorito isn’t good nowadays, but it was good for some loud laughs as a kid. Mafalda is a great comic for both adults and children, same with Macanudo and Dosis Diarias and are a great place to start practicing spanish because they rely a lot on visuals too and the texts aren’t heavy. Ogu y Mampato (sometimes only referenced as Mampato) is about adventures and doesn’t consist on comic strips like the previous comicbooks mentioned, but in adventures that last some 40 pages each. It’s about a kid that travels through time alongside his caveman friend. Later, they are also accompanied by a girl named Rena from the future
