The Love Bunglers #[nn]
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis volume collects the complete 'Love Bunglers' storyline from Jaime Hernandez's acclaimed 'Love and Rockets' series, focusing on the lives of Maggie Chascarrillo and her family as they navigate past traumas and present challenges. The story weaves together flashbacks to Maggie's childhood in the 1960s with her adult life, exploring themes of memory, loss, and resilience. Originally serialized in the 'Love and Rockets: New Stories' annuals, this 2014 Fantagraphics collection brings together the entire narrative arc in a single edition.
In "The Love Bunglers Part One," Maggie’s quiet evening takes a sharp turn when Calvin waits outside her apartment, his presence heavy with unspoken tension. As she later shares a dream with Reno during a work outing, the fragile threads of connection begin to fray—especially when Ray takes her to a gallery opening, reigniting a postponed date. The moment feels charged, intimate, and uncertain, as the past and present blur in a story where love isn’t just tangled, but dangerously close to breaking.
In "The Love Bunglers Part Three," Maggie stumbles upon Ray’s lost phone while walking with Angel, leading her to a quiet moment at his closed workplace where an informal life drawing session is about to begin, with Vivian as the model. As she watches from the edge of the room, the familiar rhythms of art and connection stir something unspoken between her and the others gathered there.
