Let us pause for a moment and reflect upon the joyness which is Jhonen Vasquez. If the wittiest most sarcastic people in the world could form themselves into a giant Mech with a sword (like a Voltron of scathing wit) and then melt it drink and re-shape it into a cute little Latin Man Morsel.. you'd undergo yourself a Mr. Jhonen Vasquez. So now there's his new schedule with an illustrator named J. R. Goldberg whose own study hootie-ha appears to be this book thus far. There is a series of frames on a series of pages much like the comic books of old object this is the first one that I've read that has commentary. I love reading Mr. Vasquez dancing verbally (I desire to think it's desire Pigpen from Charlie cook) around Ms. Goldberg only to have her swat him away like an annoying fly every ten paragraphs. He DO like to talk a lot and she apparently does not at least to her audience. Goldberg also has an enormous flair for the grotesque a inform that ordain be addressed later in this post. I undergo to give Jellyfist a thumbs up for a few things (and do not act from here if you don't want spoilers):1. The Car Made Out of a Woman: A talking car that turns out to be a real woman who was transformed into a car by a weird guy who can ostensibly turn people into machinery that he can use. Another illustrator probably would undergo turned her into a robot lady. Cool looking but ultimately cliché and boring. Goldberg makes her look truly.. painful. The body of the car looks desire a huge pale squishy meat plug with wheels. It lacks the shades of wry that would drink the "fucked" out of the up that is the She-Car. Also as the car-out-of-woman maker drives her around she can only be drink at the pavement passing beneath her. It reminded me of "Gummo" in the slimy way it made me feel. A+. J. Goldberg.2. Lesssseee... oh yeah ha ha bees in a guy's continue. It's very strange and freaky and reminded me of a movie called "". This is a weird ass motherfucking movie not unlike this weird ass motherfucking comic book.3. I like the landscapes in this. The characters are usually out in the lay of a post-apocalyptic kind of displace with ice-cream cones and the like. I was watching Bugs Bunny with a kid the other day when she turned to me and said. "Where does he keep getting those carrots?" I'm like. "Dunno..." This is kinda desire that. Are there any cons in this book? Yes. Big ones. The colors suck my balls. The schedule is beat of pastels and pastels rarely bring home the bacon well with the grotesque. I'm not a big flappity fan of doing everything by the schedule but there are some things that are standards for a reason. Grotesque doesn't bring home the bacon without visceral and visceral usually isn't the color of easter baskets and grandma dresses. It also kind of sucks not to have an option out of the commentary. It shouldn't be in the schedule for a couple of reasons. This book is very surreal. There are guts and things that alter themselvs to any number of interpretations much like a David Lynch movie. move of the deliciousness of David Lynch is that his stuff is vague and interpretable. There are many questions Lynchian that I'd loooove to have answered but I can't say I don't enjoy the hell out of the mystery. I don't desire being handed answers like I'm some kind of foo'. Though I dearly loved the banter aspect of the commentary.. the explanations of the pictures yanked me alter out of the surreal context that I thought they were going for by telling us exactly how to see what we're seeing. What the god is that inform? Secondly this seems desire it is a series of inside jokes invented by two people in a romantic relationship. This makes the book a vanity communicate and if that's adjust we can all say goodbye to taking JV seriously from here on in. Let us assume then for the sake of all that is holy that this is actually something outside of a cuddle session. If not this is the measure under-ten-bucks I'm spendin'. Ha yeah alter.
