Here’s your first sneak peek of an advance copy of The Love and Rockets Companion, edited by Marc Sobel & Kristy Valenti and coming in July. This book fits nicely on your shelf with the Love and Rockets Library volumes and serves as your guide to the L&R universe, with 3 major interviews with the Hernandez brothers, character guides, previously unpublished artwork, Locas and Palomar timelines, a complete bibliography, and letter column excerpts. All this wrapped in a fold-out jacket with a poster on one side and character family trees on the other! We’ll show you that in action along with more views of the book soon.
Our free 32-page preview assembles short excerpts from each of the major sections; read it here, where you can also place your pre-order. And you can pre-order a set of the Companion, Covers, and Reader books at a nice discount here.

From Gilbert Hernandez’ story “Act of Contrition”, part of his Palomarverse of stories set in a small fictional Latin American town. When I first read this I was 14 years old or thereabouts, and had yet to encounter “Les Misérables”. Ofelia goes for challenging goodnight stories!

But where’s Luba’s hammer? (It could be the Bat-Hammer!)

Beautiful Palomar pin-up by Gilbert Hernandez. Originally published in the Love & Rockets calendar and later collected in Hernandez Satyricon (L&R Library vol. 15), published by Fantagraphics, August 1997.
I have this as a print, but in colour. It’s amazing.

Love & Rockets 15, Jan. 1986
This was one of the first two single issues I bought of the comic (the other was #20) which was I think my first exposure to Gilbert’s comics in English, and my first exposure to Jaime’s comics period. ♥

Panel from Gilbert’s Hernandez’s story “The Way Things Are Going”, part of his Palomar-verse. I think it’s from around 1986…

In terms of reading material at the moment, I’ve been spending a lot of time with Luba and the gang in Palomar. It’s always a good time!

In Love and Rockets, the Hernandez brothers wrote from the context of their West Coast Latino background, but they did so in a way that normalized those experiences.
