Spanish Fly

A wild, short-lived series from Fantagraphics, Spanish Fly ran for five issues in the mid-1990s, bringing a raw, underground energy to the publisher’s lineup. Best known for the work of writer/artist Gilbert Hernandez, the series explores surreal, often darkly comedic tales of a mysterious, shape-shifting character. Its importance lies in showcasing Hernandez’s distinctive, offbeat storytelling outside his more famous Love and Rockets universe.
