Maria M.'s is a sordid tale of sex, drugs, violence, and power. When she comes to America for a better life, she marries a drug kingpin, whose son learns Maria's darkest secret, leading to the most violent gangland bloodbath in organized crime history. Maria M. collects 2013's Book One (now out of print), and the never-before-published Book Two, presenting the complete graphic novel for the first time. Longtime readers of Hernandez's books will recognize a metatwist worthy of Maria M.'s pulpy pages: Maria M. doubles as a "biopic" of the mother of Hernandez's most beloved character: Luba from Love and Rockets!

Industry Reviews

Maria M. is executed with style, strong and sensitive character development, practiced casual linework, and the kind of gonzo weirdness that defines the Hernandez ethos. This tale feels like the half-remembered dream of a midnight movie, making for a whimsy worth reading.-- "Publishers Weekly"
Every writer should be so lucky to have the imaginative chops that Hernandez shows in Maria M.-- "Southwest Review"
