Alligator abortions. Penguin prostitution. A foul-mouthed baby chick with a high-scoped rifle aimed at his head. A pedophile who’s been raised from the darkest pits of hades. When Mark Millar titled this series “The Unfunnies,” he wasn’t joking.
This is perhaps the most profane, vile, disgusting comic book I’ve ever had the displeasure to read. Perhaps what makes this book so shocking is that the characters are drawn in the style of some of your favorite childhood cartoons and when they commit these wanton acts, it’s pretty brutal.
Which is more shocking to see? Robert DeNiro shooting somebody in cold blood or Mr. Rogers? When innocence is lost, it’s very violating and that’s how this book made me feel. I definitely will be dropping this title from my collection and I will NOT be seeking out further books under this title.
(This book reprints Unfunnies #1 and 2.)
Not Worth Consuming
