Who is Cheetah Torpeda?

Cheetah Torpeda burst onto the scene in 1985 through the pages of Fantagraphics' beloved Love and Rockets, one of the landmark alternative comics series of the Bronze Age, brought to life by the singular vision of Jaime Hernandez. Over a publishing span stretching nearly three decades, this character inhabits the rich, layered world Hernandez built — sharing pages with fan favorites like Maggie Chascarillo, Hopey Glass, Penny Century, and Golden Girl across titles including Love and Rockets: New Stories and God and Science: Return of the Ti-Girls. With only seven catalog appearances, Cheetah Torpeda is a rare, choice figure — the kind of deep-cut character that rewards devoted readers who've truly lost themselves in Hernandez's universe. For collectors who treasure Love and Rockets in all its depth and texture, she's a genuine find.
