PolicePolice in science fiction storiesIn the album Bonne Année, where the setting is a future police state, the police ultimately let our youthful protagonists go in an act of generosity. The hero of the album Kraken is police Lt. Dante, who patrols what is both literally and figuratively the underworld of the city of Metropol. "Sanitation Police" are one of the forces operating in the post-catastrophe world of Pepe Moreno's Rebel, though law and order don't seem to be present to be enforced.

"Maracas" (Memín) / argumento de Yolanda Vargas Dulché ;

SUMMARY: Carlos, Ricardo and Ernesto eat in a Chinese
restaurant. Memín goes home to get some maracas, figuring
that no cabaret will let them in because they are so young.
Memín plans to pretend they are musicians. The white boys
sing, however badly, and Memín holds it together with his
natural rhythm. Meanwhile, Carlos's mother Isabel
("Chabela") is in a tough underworld cabaret talking about
how she hates her life and how her husband abandoned her
when he got rich, though Carlos doesn't know this.
Eventually the four friends arrive at the same
establishment and find Chabela fighting off a drunk
customer. The man hits her and Carlos wades in, knocking
him down. The man pulls a gun and tries to shoot Carlos,
but Isabel gets between them and is shot. Carlos throws a
bottle and apparently kills the man. Isabel is not badly
hurt and tells her son to run before the police get there.
