Love and Rockets: New Stories #3

After Jaime's two-part super-hero epic from Love and Rockets: New Stories #1 and #2, we return to the enthralling minutiae of the Locas cast's lives for the first time in three years. In the main story Ray finally gets his date with Maggie: The couple goes to an art opening and to dinner, they discuss the crazy world of dreams, and Maggie asks Ray for a huge favor. Also in this volume, Brown Town, Blue Sun, a new installment in Jaime's beloved little kids flashback series: A ten-year-old Maggie and her family move away from Hoppers to a desert ghost town And on the Gilbert side of the ledger, Scarlet by Starlight is a story starring Fritz (of High Soft Lisp fame) that (in contrast to #2's silent masterpiece Hypnotwist) consists entirely of a 14-page dialogue scene. Killer/Sad Girl/Star picks up the Sad Girl character from LRNS #2, and how no one in her family takes her budding film career seriously.
