Martín el Loco

Martín el Loco made his entrance in the pages of Love and Rockets #5 in 1984 — right in the heart of the Bronze Age — born from the singular imagination of Jaime Hernandez and published by the fiercely independent Fantagraphics. Over four decades, he's woven through the rich, sun-drenched world of Love and Rockets and its companion volumes, sharing those beautifully rendered pages with beloved figures like Luba, Tonantzín Villaseñor, and Maricela. With two key-issue appearances to his name and a presence that stretches all the way to 2024, Martín el Loco is the kind of recurring soul who reminds you why Love and Rockets remains one of the most rewarding long reads in all of alternative comics.
