Locas tells the story of Maggie Chascarrillo- a bisexual- Mexican-American woman attempting to define herself in a community rife with class- race- and gender issues. Maggie's story begins in the early-1980s Southern California rock scene- when it was shifting from the excesses of the 1970s to the gritty basics of punk and new wave. Hardcore punk rock came to the fore- and the teenage Maggie finds herself drawn to the anarchy- energy- and diversity of the scene- which in Jaime's hands becomes a very real- habitable place populated with authentic human beings rather than stereotypes. She quickly befriends Hopey Glass- a feisty anti-authoritarian punkette who quickly becomes Maggie's on-again- off-again lover and a constant presence in her life as they navigate a devastatingly naturalistic world. Created over 15 years from 1981-96 in the pages of the legendary comic book series Love and Rockets Vol. I #1–50- this new deluxe hardcover edition includes three stories that were not included in the previous edition.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"FANTAGRAPHICS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42178053439550,"sku":"979887500172754999","price":44.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2059\/7683\/files\/166123-hr.jpg?v=1761338490","url":"https:\/\/goldenapplecomics.com\/products\/979887500172754999","provider":"Golden Apple Comics","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
