History

Cabrera's first venture into comics was the semi-autobiographical series JOSE: Life According to Jose Cabrera, followed by a series of strips entitled The Adventures of Abusive Stepfather.[4] Although not directly related, the comic's absurd humor directly influenced the development of Crying Macho Man. A compilation of the original series was released in 2007, entitled The Premiere Crying Macho Man Collection: Prime Cut.[5][6] A second book, You So Loco!, was released in May 2008.[7][8]
