The following is an excerpt from Proof That the Devil Loves You, the latest installment in the ongoing Love and Rockets comic book series. The graphic novel is out this month from Fantagraphics.
With older brother Mario and younger brother Jaime, Gilbert Hernandez cocreated Love and Rockets #1 in 1981. It may have been a very small, black-and-white affair, but forty years later, the series is considered a modern classic and the Hernandez brothers continue to create some of the most startling, original, and intelligent comic art to be seen since the 1960s underground boom. Gilbert lives in Ventura, California, with his wife and daughter.
