La Perdida
From Wikipedia:
La Perdida is an independent comic book series created by Jessica Abel (a Xeric Foundation grant winner) and published by Pantheon Books.
La Perdida is a story centered on the life of a young American woman (Carla), living abroad in Mexico. Although Abel herself lived in Mexico City for two years (1998–2000) with her (now) husband Matt Madden, the story is not autobiographical. La Perdida is an expressively illustrated, emotional / relationship - based comic with strong cultural overtones. During her stay in Mexico City as an American expatriate attempting to gain a greater knowledge of her Mexican heritage, Carla encounters a variety of people, eventually rejecting her role within the expatriate social hierarchy and attempting to achieve a more authentic experience of life as an "ordinary" citizen of Mexico. Her encounters prove time and time again, however, that the dismissal of her background is not easily achieved and she eventually reconciles with the universality of human nature (in controversion to her initial notions of authenticity). Along the way, she confronts the complexities of an age-old civilization, upheavals of conflicting politics, and the criminal undercurrents of Mexico City.
