Hardcore punk rock came to the fore, and the teenage Maggie finds herself drawn to the anarchy, energy, and diversity of the scene, which in Jaime's hands becomes a very real, habitable place populated with authentic human beings rather than stereotypes. She quickly befriends Hopey Glass, a feisty anti-authoritarian punkette who quickly becomes Maggie's on-again, off-again lover and a constant presence in her life as they navigate a devastatingly naturalistic world.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCreated over 15 years from 1981-96 in the pages of the legendary comic book series \u003cem\u003eLove and Rockets\u003c\/em\u003e Vol. I #1-50, this new deluxe hardcover edition includes three stories that were not included in the previous edition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 720\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2.54 x 11.04 x 8.71 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 10, 2026\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53146302415155,"sku":"9798875001727","price":56.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/s4Y_i3Wv5U9798875001727_bcbf9749-df7d-4f05-bb4d-2ec794e9ea05.webp?v=1773864117","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/locas-the-maggie-and-hopey-stories-hardcover-1","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
