Chapter 29: Lost Angel
Release Date:
Summer 2007
For Chapter 29 of the Frank Book, Editor-in-Chief Frank Green cliqued up with Los Angeles native sons Mister Cartoon & Estevan Oriol of Soul Assassins Studios to give you an unparalleled view of the City of Lost Angels. From the streets of Hollywood to the gutters of Skid Row, from East LA to the beaches of Venice, Los Angeles County is made up of 498 square miles of a diverse range of neighborhoods.
When you talk about Los Angeles, the first thing most outsiders think of are movie stars and the glitz and glamour of Hollywood. However, with over 20.6 million residents stretched across a five county area, there are so many levels and layers beneath the polished veneer of LA, shrouded in the smog, obscured by the smoke and mirrors of Tinseltown. The Lost Angel Chapter of the Frank Book provides a look into the Los Angeles that is a reality for the millions of Angelinos who make up the true fabric of the city—from the undocumented workers striving for their piece of the American pie, all the way up to the industry power brokers working behind the scenes to manufacture the fame that still remains the city’s number one export.
