New Love #5

In "The Legend of the Crying Woman - La Llorona," Gilbert Hernandez crafts a quietly haunting flashback set before Maria’s death, as Luba’s family vacations at a nude resort. When their family good luck charm goes missing after Mitch the attendant leaves their room, suspicion flares—Maria and Fritz accuse him, though he denies it—only to receive the charm in the mail later, coinciding with Mitch’s lottery win. The story, written and illustrated by Gilbert Hernandez, features his signature blend of intimacy and mystery, with cover art by Hernandez himself.
