Trashola #3

What’s this? A good chunk of Trashola done by someone other than Josh Divine? Sure, it’s funny, and sure, it looks good, but I expect only Josh in my Trashola. Don’t challenge my rigid brain! Anyhow, the story in question is a story of a bunch of young kids finding a lot of beer and going on a rampage. If you like mayhem and destruction (and who doesn’t?), trust me, it’s funny. The main story in here from Josh is about Howdee Jones, a man who only cares about screwing random women and drinking as much as possible. One day he wanders into a fortune tellers shop, thinking that it’s a brothel, and trashes the place when he discovers that he’s not going to get laid. Things go downhill from there, but how much of this do you want me to tell you before I ruin it? After that there’s the page that’s sampled up there and a page of random gag strips, which were quite possibly the best thing in the book. More gag strips please! I don’t see a price anywhere, but let’s say that’s it’s the same as the last one, $.3.50, and leave it at that. Check out the website for many more samples if you’re still not convinced, but I’d recommend against doing it at wor, unless you work in a church or something…

Trashola #2

Sometimes I think it’s not even worth scanning stuff when the pictures turn out this crappy. Then I think I’m being paranoid and people have to know that the comics don’t actually look this shitty, right? Anyway, if anybody out there read the first issue of this and thought that it was OK but that this guy would disappear or start doing crappy comics, well, you were wrong. This one is probably better than the first. Somebody sign him up already! There aren’t enough funny book out there. The bulk of this issue is the story of a camping trip where all kinds of stuff goes wrong. Sorry, but any more info than that might ruin any one of a number of great surprises. Past that there are a bunch of short strips about thing ranging from swollen balls to Chandra Levy. No, the two have nothing to do with each other. Send him $3.50 and wait for the funny!

And here’s a random strip that Josh sent me. What, don’t you like funny?

Trashola #1

See, this is why I do this website. I didn’t really have anything to review for today (except for a bunch of stuff from Caesar Meadows, but I need to get a camera to show you just how cool his stuff is), but this comic was waiting for me when I got home. If anybody out there is keeping a mental list of comics that are genuinely funny, well, add this to it. He’s obviously been influenced by Johnny Ryan and Ivan Brunetti, but who cares? They’re two of the funniest people going and he puts his own spin on the stories. The comic looks great, the art is damn near professional, and did I mention that he’s funny? Really, this was exactly what I needed after a crappy day of work. Kudos to him, keep up the good work and keep them coming. Check out the website, all kinds of samples there and comics that aren’t in this one. Oh yeah, what’s in this? A story about a girl who has the power of the wind, one with a meteor with eyes, a talking penis, and all kinds of fun stuff. Just send him $3 already. You can say you were the first on your block to read it…
