Love and Rockets #14

In "An American in Palomar, Part Two," Jaime Hernandez continues to weave the quiet, resonant lives of Palomar’s residents with a keen eye for detail and emotion. When Izzy’s promise to give her old car to Maggie ends in a crash into Spookey the Smokey’s wall, the ripple effects send Maggie racing to Maddog’s with Speedy, just as Hopey’s band La Llorona prepares to take the stage. The story unfolds with the same intimate precision that defines the series, drawn and lettered entirely by Jaime, with a cover by Gilbert Hernandez capturing the moment’s tension and humor.
