Summary: | When Gilbert Hernandez climaxed his award-winning Palomar series at the end of Love and Rockets' original run by levelling the tiny Central American town, many disappointed readers thought he had written off the beloved characters for good. Not so - Hernandez here picks up the story of Luba, the hammer-wielding matriarch who now finds herself in the USA, where she continues to contend not only, as an immigrant, with a new and less than welcoming culture but also her tempestuous extended family. Tales of sex, violence and rock and roll. |
