A CRIME THRILLER DOUBLES AS AN ADAPTATION-STYLE META-LOVE AND ROCKETS STORY A woman comes to the U.S. from Latin America to escape her shady past, only to fall into a new shady life. After a go at the adult entertainment business, Maria marries a drug lord and her dangerous past is nothing compared to her new life in America.

Críticas:
...[Hernandez's] pulp comics... are trashy, to be sure... They are also a great deal of fun and are demented in frequently amazing ways, as Hernandez tries to come up with the most sordid, complicated and melodramatic scenarios possible... There's a firm, steady hand on all of the mechanics and formal aspects of the story, allowing Hernandez to go nuts in terms of content without ever leaving the reader behind. --Rob Clough"

Confused? Don't be! Maria M. will work perfectly on its own terms as the kind of violent, sexy pulp tale that Gilbert Hernandez has proven so adept at these past several years, and the source material for the story will just provide an extra layer of delight for the cognoscenti. Part two of Maria M. will be released in 2014.
