Marcos

Emerging from the richly textured world of Fantagraphics' landmark Love and Rockets in 1987, Marcos is a Copper Age creation of Jaime Hernandez — a cartoonist whose work in that series helped define what literary alternative comics could be. With a modest but meaningful presence across the catalog, Marcos inhabits the same vivid, character-dense pages as Pipo Jimenez, Jesús Ángel, Gato Reyna, and Satch — the kind of colorful ensemble that makes Love and Rockets feel like a whole living community rather than just a comic. For collectors who prize the intimate, novelistic storytelling that made Jaime's work legendary, even a supporting figure like Marcos is a small window into one of the most beloved indie universes of his generation.
