"Hernandez only made Maggie and Hopey's physical relationship overt (in "Locas 8:01 AM", from 1986) when he felt it made sense to their characters, a strategy tellingly consistent with his overall approach - one wich never deals in mainstream comics' language of stereotypes, a narrative sensibility that relies on climatic moments. Depicting Maggie and Hopey in a sexual relationship was in itself a political act, a statement of equality in the political climate of 1980s Reagan conservatism, and both Jaime and Gilbert contributed drawings to publications promoting homosexual rights."
