Love and Rockets #2
In "Mechanics," the Polaris Apartments become a crossroads for the bizarre and desperate: a deposed alien king seeking refuge, a drug dealer with a personal vendetta, and a mysterious figure named Zezbar trying to escape his own dimension. Written by the Hernandez brothers and illustrated with sharp, expressive detail by Mario Hernandez, this issue blends surreal humor and quiet tension in a story that unfolds with the grounded chaos of everyday life, elevated by the strange. The cover, by Jaime Hernandez, captures the moment’s uneasy energy.
