Blubber #1
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Eyes of the Mau Guag," Gilbert Hernandez crafts a surreal, sun-drenched journey as an unlikely trio—featuring a talking pig and a talking duck—descends on Las Vegas with wide-eyed wonder. With his signature blend of whimsy and quiet unease, Hernandez guides them through the neon haze, where the city’s glittering surface begins to reveal something far stranger beneath. The story unfolds in full, vivid detail, with Hernandez handling every aspect of the artwork and lettering, and the cover by Hernandez himself captures the moment just before the illusion cracks.
In "Las Vegas Lace," a trio of talking animals—a pig and a duck among them—blast into Las Vegas with all the enthusiasm of a carnival on a sugar rush, only to find the city’s glittering chaos testing their nerves, their wallets, and their sense of reality. Written with sharp wit and drawn in bold, cartoonish strokes, the story captures the absurdity of sin city through the wide-eyed, wildly mismatched perspectives of its unlikely travelers.
