Julie Wree

Julie Wree is a supporting character from Gilbert Hernandez's slice-of-life Los Angeles milieu in Love and Rockets, moving through the same punk-inflected social world as Maggie, Hopey, and their circle of friends.

Stepping out of the vibrant, sun-baked world of Gilbert Hernandez's Love and Rockets, Julie Wree made her debut in 1985 — right in the heart of that landmark Fantagraphics series that helped redefine what alternative comics could be. She's a Bronze Age original, woven into a rich tapestry of characters that includes Hopey Glass, Maggie Chascarillo, Ray Dominguez, and Terry Downe — some of the most beloved figures in indie comics history. With appearances stretching across 34 years and into collected editions like Is This How You See Me?, Julie is a testament to the deep, lived-in world the Hernandez brothers built, where even characters outside the spotlight carry real weight. Fourteen catalog appearances including a key issue make her a rewarding discovery for any serious Love and Rockets devotee.
