Love and Rockets: New Stories #4

Well, this one certainly packed an emotional punch.

Jaime concludes his The Love Bunglers storyline with some powerful writing and drawing. Maggie's life sort of comes full circle and with Jaime filling in gaps in her life story through flashback stories over the last few editions, there's a real sense of closure. I've been reading about Maggie and Hopey and the rest for the last 25 years or so, in various iterations of Love and Rockets, so to see this character finally get a happy ending was quite moving. I hope Jaime hasn't finished with Maggie. Besides, we haven't found out what's happening with Hopey yet!

For me this edition is all about Jaime's stories. Gilbert's stories left me a bit cold. Has he got another Human Diastrophism or Poison River in him? I dunno. I'm not warming to Killer.

So the five stars are all Jaime's.
