El Pais had five actors from Spain made up especially as real life versions of well known comics characters, including Popeye, Tintin, Batman/Bruce Wayne, Flash Gordon (although he appeared to be in the 80s movie costume rather than comic style) and a disturbingly cute girly ‘Donald Duck’ (just go and look and see what I mean); there’s a video of the photo shoots (the make up for Popeye is unsurprisingly elaborate) on the El Pais site, in Spanish but I think even those of us with no grasp of Spanish can get the gist from the video.
