    Written by Mario Hernandez. Art and Cover by Gilbert Hernandez. The long-lost "Tales of Somnopolis" created by Gilbert and Mario Hernandez, which originally appeared in the back of the mid-'80s Mister X comic and have never been reprinted since (they did not appear in the Warner book collection, making them the most sought-after Hernandez items ever, out-of-print for well over a decade), are finally collected in one snappy package! Not only does this issue reprint all three original "Somnopolis" stories (slightly re-edited to delete all references to the world of Mister X and integrate them into the world of Love and Rockets), but Gilbert and Mario have pulled out all the stops and added a new cover, back cover and title page, as well as a brand-new 6-page tale -- and the entire book is being presented in a striking, newly executed duotone (black and red) format that shows the work off to far better advantage than the original, somewhat murky coloring. A Bros. classic not to be missed! 24 pages, PC/PB&W. Mature Readers. Cover price $3.95.
