Love and Rockets: The Girl from Hoppers

The 25th anniversary of Love & Rockets continues with the second of three volumes collecting the adventures of the spunky Maggie, her annoying best friend and sometime lover Hopey and their circle of friends. Having abandoned the sci-fi trappings of the earliest Love & Rockets stories, Hernandez refined his approach, settling on the more naturalistic environment of the fictional Los Angeles barrio, Hoppers, and the lives of the young Mexican-Americans and punk rockers who live there.
