Satiricon #[nn]
This collection brings together the satirical and often surreal comics work of the Hernandez brothers (Jaime, Gilbert, and Mario) from the early 2000s, originally serialized in the Spanish magazine Satiricon. Published by Ediciones La Cúpula, the volume showcases their signature blend of sharp social commentary, dark humor, and experimental storytelling across a series of short strips and longer narratives. It serves as a snapshot of the Hernandez family's creative output during this period, distinct from their more famous Love and Rockets work.
In "Mi libro de amor," Gilbert Hernandez turns inward with a poignant, self-aware collection of personal reflections, blending humor and melancholy as he meditates on art, memory, and the quiet weight of time. With intimate storytelling and deeply personal vignettes—ranging from early romance to imagined farewells—this issue stands as a touching, introspective chapter in a long-running series, rendered with the distinctive, expressive style that defines his work.
