Other stories include Jaime's charming \"Rocky and Fumble\" series starring a planet-hopping girl and her robot; stunning one-shots such as Gilbert's Frida Kahlo biography and his shocking autobiographical fantasia \"My Love Book\"; Mario's genre thrillers which take place \"Somewhere in California\"; Gilbert's brutally dystopian \"Errata Stigmata\"; the playful \"Hernandez Satyricon,\" with Gilbert drawing Jaime's characters, and \"War Paint,\" with Jaime trying out Palomar; Gilbert's light-hearted \"Music for Monsters\" starring Bang and Inez; and even a fantastical \"non-continuity\" Maggie and Hopey story \"Easter Hunt\" by Jaime that didn't fit into the other books.
