Although little is known about Joaquín Guzmán Loera’s life in “Narcos”, he is the series about the history of ‘El Chapo’ the one that focuses more on him and more specifically tells his career in the Mexican drug world: from his beginnings in the lower ranks of the hierarchy of power, to becoming the leader of the Sinaloa cartel.

Pablo Escobar: The model of evil

In the case of “Pablo Escobar: El Patrón del Mal”, the goal is to tell the true story of Pablo Escobar, who is perhaps the most wanted drug dealer in the 1970s, 1980s and 1990s in his native Colombia. He is a pioneer in this criminal world and he marked it because far from dealing with marijuana, he did it with cocaine.

Although “El Chema” does not mention as such the fact that it is based on real events, its own story reveals that it is inspired by the life of Joaquín “El Chapo” Guzmán. So basically, Netflix has two drug series focusing on this criminal who was arrested in 2019 after several failed operations, arrests, escapes, and more.
