Erwachsenencomic Birdland Nummer 1 von 3 veröffentlicht im Oktober 1990 von Eros Comix. Neue erotische Fantasie von Gilbert Hernandez, Mitbegründer von Love and Rockets. Bang Bang, Inez, Petra Martinez, Fritzi, Mark Herrera.

Celebrating its 25th anniversary in 2007, Love and Rockets is finally being released in its most accessible form yet: As a series of compact, thick, affordable, mass-market volumes that present the whole story in perfect chronological order.This volume will collect the second half of Gilbert Hernandez's acclaimed magical-realist tales of "Palomar," the small Central American town, beginning with the landmark "Human Diastrophism," named one of the greatest comic book stories of the twentieth Century by The Comics Journal, and continuing on through more modern-day classics."Human Diastrophism" is the only full graphic novel length "Palomar" story ever created by Gilbert. In it, a serial killer stalks Palomar—but his depredations, hideous as they are, only serve to exacerbate the cracks in the idyllic Central American town as the modern world begins to intrude. "Diastrophism" concludes with the death (the suicide, in fact) of one of Palomar's most beloved characters, and a postscript that provides one of the most hauntingly magical moments of the entire series as a rain of ashes drifts down upon Palomar.Also included are all the post-"Diastrophism" stories, in which Luba's past (as seen in the epic Poison River) comes back to haunt her, and the seeds are sown for the "Palomar diaspora" that ends this dense, enthralling book.

This volume collects the first half of Gilbert Hernandez's acclaimed magical-realist tales of Palomar, the small central American town, beginning with 'Sopa de Gran Peana' and continuing on through modern-day classics."

Set against a backdrop of crime and desperation, the story follows a cast of colorful characters including a drug dealer, a rock 'n' roll loser, a voluptuous vixen, and a cunning grifter, all in pursuit of a legendary hard luck charm. This sequel to Chance in Hell promises a gritty, fast-paced narrative filled with dark humor and unexpected twists, embodying the essence of hard-boiled pulp fiction. Beto delivers a captivating tale of greed and ambition in a world where luck is the ultimate prize.

This book presents three Fritz B-movies: one all-new, two revised and expanded from their initial comic book run. The titular story is a fable set in a world very reminiscent of Palomar. Then, Fritz plays an "astronette" on an existential mission through space.

The great Gilbert Hernandez's unfettered Id unleashed! Absurd, explicit, and profanely funny, Blubber makes all other comics blush. Drawn from the first five issues of Gilbert Hernandez's comic book series Blubber , an absurdly X-rated showcase for the most surreally transgressive of Hernandez's short stories, weirdos (Blubberoo, Mr. Elvis, John Dick, the Mentor), creatures (the Mau Guag, Doogs, and Orlats…), and anthropomorphs (the Cloarks, the Kekeppy) visit places where most comics fear to go. Blubber veers between an absurdist satire of porn (and occasionally nature documentaries) and a celebration of unbridled hedonism, serving as a defiant provocation to those unable to appreciate the difference between cartooning and obscenity. As R. Crumb said, "It's only lines on paper, folks!" It is also a howlingly funny book, filled with a rogues gallery of colorful comic book monsters (the Pollum, the Junipero Molestat, the mythical Forest Nimmy) and characters (T.A.C. Man, Mr. Hippy, Padre Puto, the Snowman, Baron Mungo, Red Tempest) that echoes the sheer visual imagination of Jack Kirby. Full color

This double-feature collects two Gilbert Hernandez graphic novellas in one! In the Eisner Award-winning "Hypnotwist," a woman wanders through a series of increasingly surreal scenes, confronting motherhood, alcoholism, a sinister smiley face, and worse fates. Illustrated psychodrama as you like it! Meanwhile, in "Scarlet by Starlight": Imagine a B-movie cross between Star Trek and Heart of Darkness. When a primitive alien fauna becomes infatuated with its colonizer, a fragile ecosystem threatens to crumble under fear and violence.

This graphic novel offers a provocative retelling of the Biblical creation story and the events in the Garden of Eden, infused with a highly sexualized perspective. Crafted by the co-author of "Love & Rockets," it explores themes of desire and the complexities of human relationships, extending the narrative through to Noah's Ark. The artwork and storytelling aim to challenge traditional interpretations while providing a fresh, adult-oriented lens on well-known Biblical tales.
