Xamie's Latest
I spent a wonderful evening last night reading Jaime's portion of the latest Love and Rockets. It was incredible. As usual, the artwork was sublime, but i've come to expect nothing less from Xamie's drawing. What made New Stories #3 stand out was the story. It was funny, moving, touching without being sappy (he rarely resorts to cliche), and actually heartbreaking. I pretty much know no one who reads L&R - which is a damned shame - so I don't feel like it's a spoiler to say that when Ray walked away from Maggie, and his explanation for doing so, I felt emotions as complex as I ever have when reading. It's a masterful story, and well worth checking out. You can do so here!
