Description - Love and Rockets: New Stories #2 by Gilbert Hernandez
In the summer of 2008, Fantagraphics Books brought the classic Love and Rockets brand to a whole new audience with the hugely successful first volume of the trade-paperback sized Love and Rockets: New Stories. A year later, the Hernandez Brothers are back with the second eye-popping volume. This volume gets off to a flying start with "Hypnotwist," Gilbert's 39-page wordless epic about a beautiful, leggy redhead's surreal journey into a night filled with mysterious shady characters, dreamlike violence, and sparkling retro spike heels. But is it real, or something else? Then, the concluding 50-page chapter of Jaime's acclaimed superhero mash-up "Ti-Girls Adventures," our protagonist Boot Angel learns more hard lessons about becoming a superheroine. Eventually, just about the entire cast gets together in Maggie's tiny, messy one-bedroom apartment. Beto concludes with "Chest Fever," in which a group of friends venture to Las Vegas, which isn't quite what they expected...
