“Maggie and Hopey Color Fun”

In "Maggie and Hopey Color Fun," Jaime Hernandez delivers a quietly resonant slice of life as Ray’s restless night unfolds in the neon haze of a late-night drive. With his mood shadowed by memory, he crosses paths with Negra and her friend, then stumbles into Denny’s All Night, where fleeting glimpses of Hopey and Goforth stir long-buried reflections. Rendered in Hernandez’s signature style—every line and shadow carrying weight—this issue captures the ache of time passing, all told through his masterful storytelling and art. Cover by Jaime Hernandez.

A visit to a strip-club leaves Ray in a melancholic mood. He goes for a drive and encounters Negra and her friend, who have broken down. He gives them a lift, which does nothing to improve his mood. He winds up in Denny's All Night, where he sees Hopey and Goforth, and spends the rest of the night thinking about the past.
