The indicia incorrectly gives the first printing date of January 1988.

• Love & Rockets Issue 29 ? March 1989 - Production credits, indicia and a background illustration from the Flies on the Ceiling story. Printed on inside front cover.
• Poison River [Chapter 1] - Part one of the earliest origins of Luba and her mother Maria, her father Eduardo and her cousin Ofelia. The opening five pages are wordless, making it somewhat ambiguous on why Maria was kicked out of the mansion. In the reprint collections for this story, additional dialogue is added making it explicitly clear why she was kicked out.
• Flies on the Ceiling (The Story of Isabel in Mexico) - The story takes place years earlier, before the first issue of the series. The trip to Mexico was mentioned before in the "Locos" story from issue seven and in "The Secrets of Life and Death: Vol. 5" story from issue nineteen.
• El Show de Chota - Back cover. Features a parody of the singer Charo.
