El Eternauta (Netflix, 2025) is the adaptation of Argentina''s most important graphic novel, created by Héctor Germán Oesterheld. If you''ve finished the first season and want more sci-fi with that same narrative density and dark atmosphere, here are our top picks for what to watch next.

What to Watch After El Eternauta

Dark (2017)

Sci-Fi · 3 seasons · ★ 8.4

The German Netflix series that redefined time travel storytelling. Like El Eternauta, it has a dense, intricate narrative and characters crushed under the weight of a destiny they never chose. If you enjoyed the feeling that nothing is coincidental, Dark is essential viewing.

Stranger Things (2016)

Sci-Fi / Thriller · 5 seasons · ★ 8.6

An invasion from another world threatening a community trying to survive and resist: the parallels with El Eternauta are hard to miss. The nostalgic 80s setting differs, but the group dynamics and narrative structure are remarkably similar.

Black Mirror (2011)

Sci-Fi / Anthology · 7 seasons · ★ 8.3

If what gripped you most in El Eternauta was its critique of humanity facing an existential threat, Black Mirror takes that premise further with each self-contained episode. Every chapter is a different dark universe.

El Marginal (2016)

Drama · 5 seasons · ★ 8.2

Argentina''s other great Netflix original. Less sci-fi, more raw social drama, but with the same narrative intensity and production quality that elevated El Eternauta to international recognition.

Squid Game (2021)

Thriller / Drama · 3 seasons · ★ 7.9

The most-watched series in Netflix history. Like El Eternauta, it takes ordinary people and forces them into extreme situations with impossible choices. Season 3 is now available.

3% (2016)

Sci-Fi / Dystopia · 4 seasons · ★ 7.1

Netflix''s first original Portuguese-language series and the platform''s most important Latin American dystopia: only 3% of the population earns access to a better life. Four seasons that maintain the tension.

Sense8 (2015)

Sci-Fi / Drama · 2 seasons · ★ 7.7

Eight people in different countries connected telepathically must survive together. Ambitious, philosophical, and unlike anything else. Netflix cancelled it but produced a feature-length finale to close the story.
