Jaime Hernandez Talks About New Book with NPR’s Nina Gregory

By publishing the first issue of “Love and Rockets” in 1981, Gilbert, Jaime and Mario Hernandez helped usher the alternative comics revolution of that decade, creating a beloved world of characters that have developed, evolved and actually aged on the page.

Tonight, Jaime will talk about his latest graphic novel, “Is This How You See Me?” with NPR’s Arts Desk Senior Editor Nina Gregory. “Is This How You See Me?” focuses on Maggie and Hopey, two of his ‘Locas,’ flashing back and forth in time to reveal how these young L.A. Chicano punks grew into complex, middle-aged women.
