I felt that the characters developed a lot more in this, while it was a little sad to see them growing up and changing it was done very well. What really begins to shine through is the heavy influence of Archie comics on Hernandez's art, specifically the similarities in style he shares with Dan DeCarlo, generally regarded as the man that shaped the contemporary look of the Archie characters, starting in the late 50s.

But look at the last few pages of "The Death Of Speedy" to see how much variety there is in the artwork too - Maggie's manga-esquire demon-headed freakout; the jagged lines on the panel of Speedy in shadow; the carefree, Archie-style cartooning in the flashback epilogue.

  • LOCAS: the MAGGIE and HOPEY STORIES by Jaime Hernandez Study Guide Written by Art Baxter
    NACAE National Association of Comics Art Educators STUDY GUIDE: LOCAS: THE MAGGIE AND HOPEY STORIES by Jaime Hernandez Study guide written by Art Baxter Introduction Comic books were in the midst of change by the early 1980s. The Marvel, DC and Archie lines were going through the same tired motions being produced by second and third generation artists and writers who grew up reading the same books they were now creating. Comic book specialty shops were growing in number and a new "non- returnable" distribution system had been created to supply them. This opened the door for publishers who had small print runs, with color covers and black and white interiors, to emerge with an alternative to corporate mainstream comics. These new comics were often a cross between the familiar genres of the mainstream and the personal artistic freedom of underground comics, but sometimes something altogether different would appear. In 1976, Harvey Pekar began self-publishing his annual autobiographical comics collection, American Splendor, with art by R. Crumb and others, from his home in Cleveland, Ohio. Other cartoonists self-published their mainstream- rejected comics, like Cerebus (Dave Sim, 1977) and Elfquest (Wendy & Richard Pini, 1978) to financial and critical success. With proto-graphic novel publisher, Eclipse, mainstream rebels produced explicit versions of their earlier work, such as Sabre (Don McGreggor & Paul Gulacy, 1978) and Stewart the Rat (Steve Gerber & Gene Colan, 1980). Underground comics evolved away from sex and drugs toward maturity in two anthologies, RAW (Art Spiegleman & Francoise Mouly, eds., 1980) and Weirdo (R. Crumb, ed., 1981). Under the Fantagraphics Books imprint, Gary Groth and Kim Thompson began to publish comics which aspired to an artistic quality that lived up to the high standard set forth in the pages of their critical magazine, The Comics Journal.

  • How to Kill a by Isabel Ruebens Jaime Hernandez
    T H E B / O R D E R O F T H I N G S How to Kill a By Isabel Ruebens Jaime Hernandez Heralded in the comics community for his stories about punk rockers, lesbian aliens, and rocket-repair mechanics, Jaime Hernandez continues to publish fiction for Fantagraphics Books. His tale of writer Isabel “Izzy” Ruebens reproduced here is the stuff of comic legend and a remarkable piece of storytelling from one of a pair of gifted American artists who Chicano theory guru Ramon Saldívar has called “the best read Chicano writers in the United States.” 252 T H E B / O R D E R O F T H I N G S 253 T H E B / O R D E R O F T H I N G S 254 T H E B / O R D E R O F T H I N G S 255 T H E B / O R D E R O F T H I N G S After Thought/s Jaime Hernandez and the B/ordered Psychocultural Terrain of a Latina Writer William A. Nericcio Jaime (“How to Kill a By Isabel Ruebens) and Gilbert Hernandez( “Errata Stigmata”) have transformed the comic book medium via their serialized graphic narratives in production since the early 1980's. While Los Brothers Hernandez (as they are known to their readers/spectators) have been influenced by developments in their own field, they are as likely to cite Picasso, Nietzsche, García Márquez, Klee, Kahlo, or Modotti as they are Disney or Archie comics (in particular Dan de Carlo of Betty and Veronica fame) as figures who have influenced their development.

    Eric J. Werthmann. Graphic Novel Holdings in Academic Libraries: An Analysis of the Collections of Association of Research Libraries Members. A Master’s Paper for the M.S. in L.S degree. July, 2008 Year. 44 pages. Advisor: Barbara B. Moran. This study evaluates the quality of the graphic novel holdings of academic members of the Association of Research Libraries in the U.S. A core list of 77 graphic novels that have won awards or are otherwise prominent was developed, and this list was compared with the libraries’ collections as represented in their online catalogs. This was done in order to assess whether academic library collections have kept up with the incredible growth in popularity that the format has experienced in recent years. The study’s findings suggest that ARL members do not have especially strong graphic novel holdings. In addition, the study examined the types of graphic novels these libraries tend to collect. It was determined that they tend to collect works published by mainstream publishers and also those relating to genres they already collect.
