Jessica

Gilbert Hernandez introduced Jessica to the richly layered world of Love and Rockets in 2016, a Modern Age arrival into one of alternative comics' most beloved and long-running universes. Published by Fantagraphics, she inhabits the same pages as Terry Downe, Baby, Isla, Chino, and Zero Gravity — a cast that signals she's woven into the vibrant, emotionally charged fabric that has made Love and Rockets a cornerstone of literary comics for decades. Her appearances span the flagship anthology and its associated volumes, including Is This How You See Me? (A Locas Story), placing her squarely within a tradition of intimate, character-driven storytelling that rewards devoted readers. A newer face in a storied universe, Jessica is the kind of quietly significant figure that reminds you why Love and Rockets has always been worth following panel by panel.
