Ugly People #3

Since I’ve spent an awful lot of time berating many comics folks for their horrible misspellings and/or incorrect usage of your/you’re, and since I’ve done that in at least two different reviews of Zack’s comics in particular, it’s only fair that I point out that this issue is much improved on that front. In fact, I don’t think there was a single typo, or if there was I didn’t notice it, so kudos to the man. He mentioned in the letter he sent with the comic that he’s working with somebody who proofs his writing now and he’s actively trying to improve it himself, so as far as I’m concerned I’ll never have to mention this again in regards to Zack. Now as to the other members of the comics community who still can’t be bothered with a little self improvement, I’ll keep on your collective cases. Now on to the comic! This issue features the conclusion to the “Bacon on a Bounty” tale from last issue, as our hero and his ridiculous sidekick get actively involved in the case. Well, they try to get actively involved anyway. We get to see BDB’s reaction to that ridiculous sidekick outfit, them mapping out their “strategy,” BDB hitting on some high school girls, and their only (hilariously short) physical confrontation before things wrap up. I was hoping for more mayhem, but who wouldn’t want to see more mayhem involving a roided up gigantic piece of bacon? The other story in here is a day in the life of the crankiest man on the planet. Or at least the crankiest cyclops. Anybody who has had a shitty morning can guess some of the basics, but you’ll definitely be surprised when he punches out a ____. I really wanted to include it here because it’s so damned funny, but you should see it for yourself. And then be happy that you live in a world where such an image exists. $3
