| 1. Love and Rockets: New Stories, No. 2 | 
| By: Jaime Hernandez, Gilbert Hernandez, Mario Hernandez
Publisher: Fantagraphics Books
August 29, 2009
This book doesn't stand alone; it stands atop nearly thirty years of previous work by both of the creators; this would be a horrible place to begin reading either of them. This particular yearly "issue" has a hundred pages of comics, evenly divided between Jaime and Gilbert Hernandez.
Jaime's half comes in two parts, but they're continuing the same story -- the story that began in last... more

| | 2. Love and Rockets: New Stories #1 (No. 1) | 
| By: Jaime Hernandez, Mario Hernandez, Gilbert Hernandez
Publisher: Fantagraphics Books
September 15, 2008
The underground comix movement of the '60s and '70s gets the most attention among comics lovers and historians, but it would be a tragic mistake to overlook the incredible variety of independent work created in the 1980s. At a time when mainstream comics were variously exploding and imploding, independents charged ahead, sometimes succeeding and sometimes failing spectacularly, but always taking huge... more

| | 4. Love & Rockets Vol. 1: Music for Mechanics |
| By: Jaime Hernandez, Gilbert Hernandez, Los Bros. Hernandez
Publisher: Fantagraphics Books
December 27, 1995
knowing that there is a rabid fanbase for cartoons/comics out there, i thought i would give the genre a try. i read a bit about the subject & found that the LOVE AND ROCKETS series is highly regarded by many comic fanatics. So i got this book, the 1st in the series, and came to the conclusion that the universe likes to play jokes on me. certainly, nobody could actually like this book! there... more

| | 5. Love & Rockets Vol. 8: Blood of Palomar | 
| By: Jaime Hernandez, Gilbert Hernandez, Los Bros. Hernandez
Publisher: Fantagraphics Books
May 29, 1996
a marriage of the visions of frida kahlo, the tales of carlos fuentes (think AURA), the humanity of gabriel garcia marquez, gilbert hernandez's opus THE BLOOD OF PALOMAR redefines the novel for an american late 20th century that found literature in flux: think pynchon, or vonnegut, or, even, warhol or coppola. his is a tale of art, murder, love, loss, and desire that few others could tell. ... more

The comic book creations of the renowned Hernandez Bros are now available in 19 paperback collections. Book 2 features the first of Gilbert Hernandez' "Heartbreak Soup Stories," where busty bathgiver Luba rocks a town "where men are men and women need a sense of humor."

| | 7. Love & Rockets Vol. 7: The Death of Speedy |
| By: Jaime Hernandez, Gilbert Hernandez, Los Bros. Hernandez
Publisher: Fantagraphics Books
2001-08
Everyone ought to read the amazing work of the immortal Los Bros. Hernandez -- Jaime and Beto H., creators (respectively) of the "Locas" and "Palomar" series, which together comprise the unified title 'Love and Rockets'. Although these are, y'know, comic books (*graphic novels* to YOU, bub), they are probably the greatest works of American storytelling since Lieutenant Slothrop vanished while searching... more

| | 8. Love and Rockets, Book 15: Hernandez Satyricon (Love and Rockets (Graphic Novels)) |
| By: Jaime Hernandez, Gilbert Hernandez
Publisher: Fantagraphics Books
October 22, 1997
This book has tons of good stories, and some goodies you couldn't find in the magazines(lost covers, unused T-shirt designes). It even has a story in which Jaime appears, and you get to see his actual picture as he interacts with some of Gilbert's creations. I think this book is good, a satisfying conclusion to the Love & Rockets series... more

| | 9. Love & Rockets Vol. 12: Poison River | 
| By: Gilbert Hernandez, Jaime Hernandez, Los Bros. Hernandez
Publisher: Fantagraphics Books
1994-10
I am really tired of the Gilbert vs. Jaimie debate. When i was younger I prefereed Jaimie because I was a punk and his art looked cooler. But that was it. Jaimie is certainly one of the most incredible artists ever to work in comics, and his stories have been wonderful as well. However, I can't believe people would say Gilbert is a poor artist! He has a distinctly different style that is distinctly... more

| | 10. Love & Rockets Vol. 6: Duck Feet |
| By: Gilbert Hernandez, Jaime Hernandez, Los Bros. Hernandez
Publisher: Fantagraphics Books
January 01, 1989
From the playful antics of the town children (oddly not at all realistically drawn (perhaps an allusion to the authors' 'Dennis the Menace' inspiration? ) - not my favorite element of the stories - although fun enough) to the ominous "toc toc toc" of the traveling witch on the mysterious object she carries, there were enough gorgeous graphics and plot turns to keep me reading straight through to... more
