Make a summary of the following narrative: This Wednesday Joaquín Lavado, better known by his nickname and pseudonym: "Quino", died.

The 88-year-old cartoonist died as a result of a stroke in Buenos Aires, the place where his most popular creation resided.

Although Quino published his beloved Mafalda comics half a century ago (between 1964 and 1973), they never lost their validity.

And many of the little girl's astute and ironic reflections on topics such as capitalism, the economy and the world order remain as valid today as they were when they were originally written.

That explains, in part, why for Argentines Mafalda is a national icon, on par with flesh-and-blood idols like Maradona, Fangio or Gardel.

And why the strips of it are part of the Argentine essence, like mate and dulce de leche.

In fact, in stores that sell products for tourists it is common to see not only Mafalda books but also a whole series of objects decorated with this emblematic character.

Mafalda never stopped asking questions that made the adults uncomfortable.

Mafalda's fame was such that Quino could never escape his most famous character: even though he had stopped making the comic strip 47 years ago - he said because he ran out of ideas - none of his subsequent works received the same recognition.

The beginning

This shy son of Andalusian immigrants, born in the central western province of Mendoza, discovered his vocation at a very young age, thanks to the influence of his uncle Joaquín Tejón, who was a painter and graphic designer.

In fact, she received his nickname, Quino, to distinguish him from his namesake, with whom he would move in at the age of 15, after his mother died of cancer and his father of a heart attack, when he was barely three. years apart.

In the few interviews that he gave throughout his life, Quino revealed that he hated going to school and that is why the character he most identified with in his famous cartoon was Felipe, Mafalda's friend. .<end_of_turn>
