5.0 out of 5 stars As entertaining as Archie, July 25, 2010
In L+R vol. 2, The Hernandez Bros begin to pick up a little momentum. Jamie has already created his MECHANICS world (the ever-loving relationship between Maggie and Hopey) and he begins to let those characters act in their own fashion. Meanwhile, Gilbert delivers the first story in his 'mechanics' equivalent (in epic proportion, not theme or setting), PALAMOR. Both brothers begin the road necessary to lead to finer and deeper stories with this second volume. Their L+R world is getting simpler and more focused. It only gets better from here.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Wife of Baths, October 5, 2009
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." Also included are the wacky adventures of Jaime Hernandez' `Locas,' Maggie and Hopey, as well as "Somewhere in California" by Mario Hernandez (the one story in the book with a male lead). Often the stories are serious; mostly they're funny, but they all prove the talent of those redefining the comic book medium, again.

This comic is unrated: Violence, Nudity, Adult Language, Adult Situations.
