¡Viva Los Comex!

Comics & artwork by Javier Hernandez, creator of El Muerto, Weapon Tex-Mex, Felinus and many more. Doing it DIY since 1998. I was the Associate Producer of EL MUERTO, the live-action film adaptation of my comic . Also Co-founder/Creative Director of the Latino Comics Expo. In addition to posting comics here, I'll also post current art from time to time, things I'm working on or something I drew in my sketchbook. Thanks for visiting!
