The phallic mother, fetishism, and nostalgia in Locas.
Freud, Gilbert Hernandez, and the phallic mother
Reading a Jaime comic brings to mind the old cliche about listening to Jazz – “It’s not about the notes they play, it’s about the notes they DON’T play.”
The Locas stories have their moments, but overall, they’re an erratic, haphazardly conceived mess.
Jaime Hernandez’ work told me that I could and should draw comics about where I live, the things I did everyday, and the people I know and love.
