cayetano “cat” garza brings his popular texmex border action/adventure/horror comic Cuentos de la Frontera back to Modern Tales today.

The second part of the Cuentos trilogy, entitled “El Pistolero”, finds Felix Jaramillo forced to move back to the Rio Grande Valley from Mexico, where he has spent the last two years studying the mystic arts of his ancient ancestors.
