The Children of Palomar — Gilbert Hernandez

New Tales Old Palomar is collects a three-issue comics magazine series into one handsome book. In the first story, mysterious, fast-moving thieves are stealing food; Sheriff Chelo and some citizens do their best to solve this mystery, but nobody seems to be able to catch these bandits until Pipo puts her soccer-trained legs to work and goes after them herself. In the second, the boys go exploring a bottomless chasm and come face to face with... well, we won't spoil the surprise. The third and last story focuses on Tonantzin: Everybody in Palomar seems to take the supernatural with a grain of salt, but young Tonantzin is haunted by a laughing baby that only appears to her. What is the baby's link to the giant stone idols that stand outside the small town...?
