Tikitik

Born in the pages of Gilbert Hernandez's boundary-pushing Love and Rockets: New Stories in 2016, Tikitik is a distinctly Modern Age creation from one of alternative comics' most celebrated auteurs. Appearing across Blubber, Love and Rockets, and Love and Rockets: New Stories, this Fantagraphics character inhabits the singular, surrealist universe Hernandez has been building for decades, sharing those strange and vivid pages with characters like Corazon, Ulu, and Mila Castellon. With only eight catalog appearances, Tikitik is a rare and intriguing figure — the kind of deep-cut discovery that rewards fans willing to dive into the weirder, wilder corners of Gilbert's ever-expanding imagination.
