Developed and marketed by Só Ídolos, the line includes T-shirts, caps, cups, cushions, coasters, keychains, and popcorn buckets, among other items. Part of the collection also references Rubro-Negro’s fourth Libertadores title as well as the 1981 Intercontinental Cup.

What Is Flamengo’s Relationship With Monica’s Gang?

The relationship between Flamengo and Monica’s Gang has been marked by historic interactions, tributes, and promotional initiatives. In 2019, for example, creator Mauricio de Sousa paid tribute to striker Gabigol and drew him alongside Jeremias. Although there have been discussions about creating an exclusive comic book, the player is already part of the comics universe as an iconic figure.

Mauricio de Sousa turned 90 on October 27, 2025. Born in Santa Isabel, in São Paulo, in 1935, the cartoonist began his career at 19 as a police reporter.

The newspaper was Folha da Manhã, now Folha de S.Paulo. In that role, he illustrated his own reports. On July 18, 1959, he published his first comic strip featuring the dog Bidu and his owner Franjinha. That was how the cartoonist’s professional journey in comics began.

Is Mauricio de Sousa a Flamengo fan?

Despite having created a Rubro-Negro character, Mauricio de Sousa is an openly declared São Paulo supporter due to paternal influence. In the comics, however, the cartoonist has always highlighted the healthy side of football rivalries.
