Book Synopsis

As Hernandez puts it, "It's my Love and Rockets world that's not my Love and Rockets world." This best-of book spotlights the women who are often ignored in pro wrestling in 125 full color illustrations: pin-ups, action shots, fake wrestling magazine covers, all presented in a large paperback format that echoes the lucha libre magazines of the 1960s. Hernandez also discusses the work in an interview with fellow cartoonist Katie Skelly. As the creator of one of the most expansive and remarkable casts of characters of any cartoonist who ever lived (in the ongoing Love and Rockets comic book series), Hernandez, a Will Eisner Hall of Famer; Eisner, Harvey, Ignatz, and PEN Award-winner; L.A. Times Book Prize winner is on a very short list of contenders for the title of America's Greatest Living Cartoonist - has been amassing this incredible body of work that no one else has ever seen. Until now.
