“The Eternaluta”He brought back the most influential classic comic in Latin America. With an updated adaptation and starring Ricardo Darín As Juan Salvo, the new version of director Bruno Stagnaro maintains the spirit of the original work created by Héctor Germán Oesterheld and Francisco Solano López, but also introduces new elements that connect with the history of Argentina and its neighboring countries.
One of those turns appears in the final episode, where Peru is explicitly mentioned in a context of military support. Although this detail is not part of the original comic published between 1957 and 1959, it does dialogue with real historical facts. In a way, there may be a geopolitical reading that gives weight to the science fiction story.

An Air force plane of Peru appears in the series “The eternal”.
In the final chapter of the Netflix series, Juan Salvo (Darín) and his group take refuge in an Argentine army base. In a special mission to cross an area controlled by the “bugs”, the group is divided. While saving and three companions move by train, Inga (Orianna Cárdenas) accompanies another part of the mission and, on their way, they find a air force plane of Peru, starry in the middle of the avenue. Inside, they find two missiles and a map that indicates that the goal was to bombard the River Plate stadium.
This scene could be interpreted as a wink to the support that Peru offered to Argentina during the Falklands War in 1982, when the government of Fernando Belaúnde Terry sent airplanes and weapons to the neighboring country. In the dialogue, Lieutenant Bob says: “Who can come from Peru to bombard a football court?” This adds irony to the scene, reinforced by the fact that Juan Salvo is portrayed as a veteran of that conflict in the islands (this is not a feature of origin of the character in the comic).
