Love and Rockets Library – Beyond Palomar by Gilbert Hernandez Paperback

Two Full-Length Graphic Novels

After a decade spent chronicling the goings-on in the sleepy Central American hamlet of Palomar, Gilbert Hernandez expanded his world radically with these two epic stories.

The dizziyingly dense period piece Poison River, traces the pre-Palomar childhood of Luba, her teenage marriage to the gangster Peter Rio, the secrets behind her mysterious mother – all the way to her arrival in Palomar.

And Love and Rockets X depicts 1990s Los Angeles as a cauldron of cultural and racial resentments ready to boil over- seemingly a million miles away from placid Palomar, and yet there are echoes from the distant village, as a certain Palomar expatriate becomes a member of the cast, and a skateboarding kid’s fugue state lands him in a most unexpected place.
