Love and Rockets #35

In "WWB P3 (Wig Wam Bam, part three)," Gilbert Hernandez delivers another sharp, character-driven installment of Love and Rockets, capturing the electric chaos of Cynthia Walker’s Hollywood party. As the main cast mingles—Scott with Fritz and Petra, Mike networking, Riri embracing the scene, and Maricela enduring an awkward exchange with Kristen—tensions simmer beneath the surface, especially when Kristen’s flirtation with Sean takes a sudden, painful turn. The issue’s pulse is set by the band’s impending performance and the quiet, telling moments between friends, all rendered in Gilbert Hernandez’s distinctive, expressive style. Jaime Hernandez’s cover, a vibrant snapshot of the night’s energy, perfectly complements the story’s mix of humor, intimacy, and unspoken drama.
