Gorgo

Emerging from the richly textured world of Jaime Hernandez's Love and Rockets in 1990, Gorgo is a Copper Age creation who inhabits one of alternative comics' most celebrated and deeply human universes. With a modest but enduring presence spanning over two decades across both Love and Rockets and Love and Rockets: New Stories, this Fantagraphics character keeps remarkable company — sharing pages with the likes of Luba, Peter Rio, and Steve Stranski in a storytelling landscape renowned for its warmth and complexity. Six appearances may sound spare, but in Jaime's world every character carries weight, and Gorgo is a genuine piece of that beloved tapestry.
