Rompetechos is a Spanish comic character created by cartoonist Francisco Ibáñez in 1964, protagonist of the series of the same name.
Ibánez stated repeatedly that, among his creations, this was his favorite character [1] and due to this he appeared frequently in other series by the author, notably Mortadelo y Filemón (Mort and Phil).
[2] The strips are 1 to 4 pages long and tell the life of this character and the funny situations that occur caused by his lack of vision.
The usual way of a cartoon of Rompetechos is usually as follows: The character has the need to do or buy something, so it starts to go back and forth causing many disasters because of his lack of vision that makes him confuse everything (e.g., confusing a young hairy man with a daisy and proceeding to "pluck" him or a man disguised as a Viking with a deer and trying to hunt him, etc.).
The character has been criticized by people who believe that mocks the myopic persons, but Ibáñez says that he has poor vision himself and does not pretend to do any harm.
