Once upon a time in Veracruz, two newlyweds tried to put their pasts behind them, to build a happy life together. But the world is full of monsters who seek to bring out the worst in them. Game on.
This issue keeps the momentum going from issue 1 and proceeds at a stately pace. From the very first page it grips the reader into the story and there is an all pervading sense of an accomplished creative team at work in this book. Yet again the title strikes the right balance between the information it gives us, and the information it deliberately holds back. The fact that you still come away satisfied results from the confident mode of storytelling, and the delicious artwork. Warning though, this issue gets pretty grizzly at times so it may not be to everyone's taste. I am, however, hooked and can't wait for the next installment. Read Full Review

Gasolina is shaping up to be a gem in its genre if you can pin it to just one genre. The grimy atmosphere, clean artwork, and keen writing keep me coming back for more despite some muddled storytelling this go-round. Read Full Review
