The Harvey Award-winning comic that taps into that continuing slacker-culture gestalt is back with a worldly 4-issue story! In the first issue, Carla is an American whose absent father is Mexican, but she is culturally Anglo. She forms a romantic attachment to Mexico in her late teens, idolizes Frida Kahlo, and tries lamely to learn Spanish. In her early 20s she meets a guy named Harry, an American blueblood with an expensive education and a history of his family, visiting Mexico. He's moving to Mexico to slack and to do nothing but follow in the footsteps of Kerouac and Burroughs. And how 'bout that painted cover? Ay-yi-yi!

"In Abel's suspenseful narrative rings true without becoming cynical, and gives pause for thought about American's and Mexican's perceptions of each other. The reader will yearn to know where a lost but fiercely passionate Carla will find herself next." – Sentinel & Enterprise
