Emo Boy tries to do for emo kids what Johnny the Homicidal Maniac did for goth kids, and it falls flat.

If you want something that's actually funny and/or enjoyable to read, don't.

This is one funny character. I love the art. I love the stories. I love all of it. Can't wait for volume two of Emo Boy.
