The Love and Rockets Library

In 2007, marking the 25th anniversary of Love and Rockets, Fantagraphics is proud to present every story from Love and Rockets Vol. I, organized by creator and collected in chronological order, in a series of affordable, compact paperback volumes.

"The Love and Rockets Vol. 1 reprints may be my favorite publishing project of the last five years, and there are a lot of fine projects going on... the smaller, bargain-priced volumes [are] the perfect vehicle for that material, the best comics series of all time." – Publishing Project of 2007, The Comics Reporter
