Maggie and Hopey together again July 4, 2004
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This probably isn't the best place to start reading Love and Rockets, since it directly follows the events of Death of Speedy but otherwise, there's a lot to like in Flies on the Ceiling. A lot of details are filled in about many of the characters' lives. Flies on the Ceiling includes an account of Izzy's time in Mexico, which I thought was really well done. And also a brief "origin story" of Terry Downe. Those two were some of my favorites. The main body of the collection though is about Maggie and Hopey's reunion. After Hopey left to go on tour with her band, Maggie had no idea where she was. In the course of the story we also an account of what happened to Hopey after we last saw her in Death of Speedy. It's really amazing how Jaime Hernandez can put so much into a few panels, so that years or even decades of a person's life can be summed up in a few pages, but all the same you feel like you got a rich and satisfying story.
