Signed and numbered Edition - Love and Rockets: Book 13 - 1st printing.
By Los Bros Hernandez.
'Chester Square' chronicles Maggie's turbulent life from the end of 'Wigwam Bam' through 'Bob Richardson,' Jaime's farewell to Love & Rockets. Split up from Hopey yet again, Maggie bounces back and forth between a one-laundromat town in Texas (the 'Chester Square' of the title), where she has to contend with both her own inner demons and a murderous hooker, and Camp Vicki, wher she has to fend off her aunt Vicki's attempts to make her a professional wrestler, and the unwanted advances of the amorous wrestling champ-to-be, Gina. As usual, Jaime spotlights a wide range of headstrong female characters, including Maggie's sister Esther and her cousin Xochitl; Penny Century, Hopey, and Danita show up as well, as does Rena Titañon, who, joined by the wrestler El Diablo, dominates the finale with a rousing free-for-all slugfest against six armed thugs.

This volume features some of the Hernandez Brothers' most compelling stories, including Jaime's 'wrestling tales' ('The Little Monster,' 'Queen Rena at 34,' and the title story), more Maggie-and-Hopey tales, and several classic Gilbert 'Heartbreak Soup' stories ranging from the harrowing ('An American in Palomar' and the excruciating prison story 'Holidays in the Sun') to the edgily romantic (Heraclio and Carmen's love story, 'Love Bites'). Plus a cover gallery, a fantastic original cover by Jaime Hermandez, and more.
