Description

Penny Century is a collection of stories from Jaime Hernandez's solo comic, Penny Century, and his subsequent return to Love and Rockets (Volume II). The book charts the further lives of Hernandez's beloved characters, including Maggie, who has settled in with her pro-wrestler aunt for a while. The story begins with "Whoa, Nellie!", a unique graphic novelette that introduces Maggie to the world of professional wrestling. This is followed by other stories that showcase Hernandez's unique blend of humor, pathos and visual storytelling. This compilation offers a glimpse into the world of Hernandez's beloved "Locas" and is a great starting point for readers who are new to his work or looking to revisit some of his most popular stories.
