The eleventh volume of The Complete Love and Rockets Library (the fifth chronologically in Gilbert Hernandezs Palomar main storyline) collects stories from 20002005. In Ofelia, the sisters, the kids, and the cousins are all settled comfortably in California after leaving Palomar in Luba and Her Family. Lubas and her cousin Ofelia’s relationship has always been fraught, but when Ofelia threatens to write a book about Luba, past memories, secrets, resentments, and pain resurface. Meanwhile, Luba’s children genius Socorro, recently out-and-proud Doralis, and prickly Maricela show that a talent for trouble may be hereditary. Luba’s sisters, Fritz and Petra, swap lovers (as usual), but are Fritz and family friend Pipo sittin’ in a tree? These vividly drawn characters are charged with Hernandez’s trademark complexity; they live, love, age, fight and diein this sweeping, multi-generational saga.
