Gilbert Hernandez is co-creator of Love and Rockets, one of the most celebrated comic-book series of all time. As children, the six Hernandez siblings were voracious comics readers, leading Hernandez to join with brothers Jaime and Mario in 1982 for the self-publication of the first issue of Love and Rockets, a milestone in the development of alternative comics. Love and Rockets and Los Bros. Hernandez, as they became known, received instant acclaim, and the independent comics publisher Fantagraphics offered to publish the series. Since then, Gilbert has been immensely prolific, creating under the Love and Rockets banner such comics classics as Palomar, Love and Rockets X, and Luba, for which he has received a Kirby and Inkpot award and six Harvey awards. In recent years, he has written and illustrated a series of comic-book adaptations of B movies featuring Fritz, his therapist-turned-actress character from Luba, in addition to collaborations with Mario Hernandez for the story Me for the Unknown and the science-fiction series Citizen Rex. In 2009, Hernandez was awarded a United States Artists fellowship for literature, and in 2013, he received the PEN USA Literary Award. The author lives in Las Vegas, NV..
