Who is Rena Titañon?

Rena Titañon is a legendary Mexican wrestler who appears in the Locas stories of Jaime Hernandez's Love and Rockets, serving as a heroic figure from Maggie's childhood memories and a symbol of strength in her working-class, Latino community.

Born into the pages of Love and Rockets #2 in 1983, Rena Titañon is a Bronze Age original from Fantagraphics' landmark alternative comics universe — one of the most celebrated independent publishing achievements of the era. Created by Mario Hernandez and Gilbert Hernandez, she has endured across an extraordinary four-plus decades, sharing her world with beloved figures like Maggie Chascarillo, Hopey Glass, Luba, and Penny Century in the richly human tapestry of Love and Rockets and its companion volumes. With two key-issue appearances to her name and a presence stretching from 1983 all the way to 2025, Rena is a testament to the staying power of the Hernandez Brothers' singular vision — the kind of character who rewards the dedicated reader willing to dig into one of alternative comics' greatest long-form achievements.
