In the Eisner Award-winning wordless comic (silent movie?) Hypnotwist, Hernandez’s B-movie star Fritz plays a character who doesn’t seem to be going anywhere, until she puts on a pair of glittery pumps. Her wanderings become increasingly surreal as she confronts motherhood, alcoholism, a sinister smiley face, cruelty, and her worst fate: Killer cameos! Includes 16 pages of previously unpublished, additional material. Scarlet by Starlight is a B movie that’s?Star Trek?meets?Heart of Darkness. Scientists, or colonizers, are doing research, surrounded by primitive fauna they affectionately nickname or treat like pests. Fritz plays Scarlet, a peaceful, catlike humanoid with a mate and children. When she becomes infatuated with one of the scientists, the fragile web of relationships explodes into violence and death, calling into question who the advanced, civilized creatures really are.

The two graphic novellas that comprise the book will be published?as a flip book with two covers, so the two stories each end in the middle of the book (with the one you’re not reading being upside down).? This very cool, handsome Double Feature package will be an essential item for Love and Rockets completists!
