Just read the first issue and I don't get it
>>153041315I think you have to be Latino to half get it.

>>153041315It doesn't get good until several issues in.>>153041719Could be. I am one.
>>153041719Chicano isn't the same as latino
>>153041719nah only white guys generally like this, it was exotic to read a comic by one of those ethnic cholos who could actually make a comic book on their own. It's funny because by all means this comes off as a fetish comic white liberals elevated to art because some vaguely brown dude made it in the 80's.
>>153041912The Hoppers stuff is pretty accurate to how grew up in the barrio, even 20 years apart. Whites wouldn't really get it unless they lived there too.
>>153041315They didn't get it either. Heartbreak Soup is when Beto gets it. 100 Room is when Jaime gets it.
>>153042416>Whites wouldn't really get itIt's not about "getting it", it's about being intrigued by the cool ethnics. There's probably some latinos who only want to consume stuff about El Barrio, holmes, but i will guarantee you most hispanics actually into comics don't want to read about that shit in comics.
It's pretty good wank book.
>>153043152That's true. The fact is I don't know anyone that even reads comics. All the Hispanic people I know just watch anime, some read manga. The DBS stereotype is real. Some of them watched MCU when it was hot, and maybe a couple cape cartoons. The only Hispanics I know that ever read comics are the much older folks that read Kaliman and Memin Pinguin growing up, for a minute. I'm the only asshole that cares about this shit. People all the way from Northampton, England like Alan Moore and Daniel Ash liked Love and Rockets more than anyone around here.
>>153043204Jaime draws incredibly hot women. Gilbert is clearly the more perverted of the two though, unfortunately not as good at attractive women.
