Hilarious,
By
This review is from: I Luv Halloween, Volume 1 (Paperback)
Can't believe no one has reviewed this book yet. It's absolutely hilarious in a very demented sick way. If your humor runs to enjoying others pain and suffering, if you really wish to rule a zombie army, if you get off on paying no attention to other people then screwing them over, well .. aside from being on messed up freak .. you'll love this book. Not for the morally minded, there are various nipple appearances. But not for the fanboys either, the main female character is a rock weilding murderer still in toddler clothes. no need to go to tokyopop's website to preview the first chapters, just buy the book. deffinetly worth it.

Something new.,
This review is from: I Luv Halloween, Volume 1 (Paperback)
This book really isn't given enough appreciation to end where it really excels. Many readers, going into this, are frankly in the wrong for carrying too many expections along with them. Here you will not find the familiar lodgings of a Slave Laboresque horror/humor mashing. While Lenore and Johnny the Homicidal Maniac present us with worlds that are, in essense, fantastic reinterpretations of our own, Benjamin Roman and Keith Giffen present the reader with a world governed by unfamiliar rules. Not provided with a safety net narration, the reader is thrust into a world which on the surface is similiar to ours, but underneath has jarring and facsinating differences that work with the story elements toward more and more unlikely scenarios. The narration told just enough to leave me pondering like a child over the laws that govern this fictional universe. It's a blast just to observe the goings-ons, read the off-beat exchanges between characters, and watch the overarching and glib plot unfold.
The hints of supernatural twists in this volume are enough to drive me to the next one, which promises an elaboration of the only glimpsed at zombie theme.

This review is from: I Luv Halloween, Volume 1 (Paperback)
I thought this book was so funny I almost wet my pants laughing. You defenately need to have an open-minded humor though, But if you laugh at sex jokes, strange ways of murder, and a little girl ripping peoples teeth out with pliars, then this book is for you

Wonderfully morbid tales,
By Midwest "horrorfan" (Kansas City, MO United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: I Luv Halloween, Volume 1 (Paperback)
I love these books. Loved them so much that after searching down and buying the graphic novels I spent the money and bought the ultimate twisted edition. They're so gleefully morbid. I haven't seen any other story actually push the envelope so much yet at the same time keep in mind the age of the characters. I recommend this to anyone who has a dark sense of humor and appreciates large doses of some ultra-violence.

THE epitome of morbid comedy.,
By Fucc The Mainstream (Kansas, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: I Luv Halloween, Volume 1 (Paperback)
I absolutely loved this series! I Luv Halloween is origional, and one of the darkest, most brutal black comedies out I ever seen/read. If you aren't a fan of things like Metalocalypse: Season One then this aint for you. Its about bunch of cynical kids who try to enjoy trick-or-treating, and their hijinks always end up in some kind of insane massacre-fest. The artwork is perfect for the Halloween theme, but the art in the first volume has much lighter feel than that of other two. Each volume focuses on one Halloween night and each is equally enjoyable and has its own brilliant ending. There are plenty of jokes, stomach-churning gore, and random "WTF!?" moments. This is incredible stuff. Almost exclusively for horror and morbid comedy Enthusiasts only.

Quite a disappointment,
By icaughtfire (Southeastern Ohio) - See all my reviews
This review is from: I Luv Halloween, Volume 1 (Paperback)
I liked the artwork because it reminded me of Jhonen Vasquez (Johnny the Homicidal Maniac, Invader Zim) so I bought this book. I thought the story was horrible and I didn't find it funny. I do have a demented sense of humor but apparently not that demented. I thought it was gross and just very disappointing. I expected so much more.

I love humorous horror. I love Johnny the Homicidal Maniac and Squee, so I thought I would try out this series of twisted dark humor. It was soooooo boring. Save your money.

Just not funny or clever enough to justify all the gore.
Save your money. |
