Byrne, Bob – Mbleh! #1

Mbleh! #1

Here’s the first of what I hope to be many solo books from one of the fine contributors to Toenail Clippings. If you’re been reading this page for any length of time you know that I think that’s just about the best ongoing anthology out there, and Bob was one of the big reasons for that. It feels like a lazy review to just say that you should really discover everything about this for yourself, but it’s true. OK, I’ll tell you a little bit about it. Grated cheese, pubic hair, hookers with one arm, mature poodles, aliens, shrink rays, and brainy ants. Did I mention that that’s just the first story? I usually just casually mention the website too, but let me tell you that you should really head on over there. If you wonder at all what the guy is all about, there are all kinds of samples over there. I’m talking twenty pages or so of his comics, so you’ll have no excuse not to buy some of his stuff after seeing that. Really, Bob was one of many favorites from the anthology, and he’s done nothing but raise my opinion of his work with this comic. I’m not sure of the conversion scale to American dollars, but I’m sure he’d be OK with it if you sent him $5 for the first issue. It’s probably a little cheaper than that, but better safe than sorry, right? Sorry the sample looks like crap, my scanner just couldn’t handle it for some reason. Luckily there’s plenty of stuff that looks great on his website…
