Let's make this birthday one to remember.

68 years old (Born on February 01, 1957)

Happy birthday, Gilbert Hernandez—the comic maestro whose talent launched "Love and Rockets" straight into our hearts (and permanently cluttered shelves worldwide). From Palomar’s surreal streets to paving your way onto Time magazine's esteemed list of Top 100 Next Wave Storytellers in 2009—your career plot twists just keep getting better.

May today be filled with laughter worthy of Jaime-level sibling rivalry moments, plus cake sweet enough to fuel another wild storytelling arc. Thanks for decades capturing humanity perfectly flawed yet hilariously relatable—we eagerly anticipate many more ink-splattered adventures ahead! Keep rocking the panels; you're timelessly rad!
