After the first issue was praised the world over for its insightful look into the slacker gestalt south of the border, the second issue of La Perdida follows up with the same high-quality writing and beautiful artwork from "Artbabe" Jessica Abel. Maybe even more so! This issue: Carla throws a housewarming party with her new roommate for a bunch of expatriates. Memo hooks up with Tomoko, a Japanese student, and intrigues Liana, the new roommate. Tensions escalate as weeks go by and he plays the two women off each other. Carla's brother Rodrigo (Rod) visits and is very unimpressed and even worried by Carla's circle of friends, so he introduces her to some of his DJ and skateboard acquaintances. And how 'bout that painted cover? Ay-yi-yi!

"Abel's series is a thoughtful exploration of our two cultures, and a love letter from Anglo house to the Mexican one. To her credit, she honestly investigates the way that Anglo-American love of Mexican culture can be in and of itself troubling when viewed from a Mexican perspective." – Cinescape
