...In fact, both Gilbert and Jaime Hernandez have recently released big, fat, complete editions of their original "Love and Rockets" storylines:
"Palomar: The Heartbreak Soup Stories" by Gilbert
and
"Locas: The Maggie and Hopey Stories" by Jaime
Both titles hold places of respect and honor on my bookshelf.
The Hernandez Bros have managed to pay the utmost respect to their influences, not just the forefathers of the modern comic book, but also in the areas of music, film, literature and painting, etc. And at the same time, they have progressed and influenced the entire comic medium to such an extent that, though they are both appreciated and admired now, their true impact will probably not be fully realized for quite some time.
