Re-introducing the book that fearlessly ridicules practically everything on the planet, as seen in HOT TOPIC retail chain stores across the country! This special trade paperback contains all four issues of the scathingly funny OH MY GOTH! miniseries. One-million years ago, a supreme being named Hieronymous Poshe arrived on Earth. His mission? To find signs of intelligent life and keep his homeworld from turning the entire globe into a collosal landing strip. Instead, he’s found that time and again, “humans suck!” If you think the world has gone to hell (and by “hell” we don’t mean some pretentious “underground” goth club--or maybe we do...), then OH MY GOTH! is for you. This equal opportunity offender pokes fun at the New York Goth scene, “ravers,” religion, and even the creator himself (who looks suspiciously like Poshe)! Thousands of devoted OH MY GOTH! fans can certainly be wrong, but we doubt it. Written and illustrated by Voltaire.

Voltaire is the wittiest modern writer in the Coffin Set,
By DJ Eternal Darkness (Seattle, WA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Oh My Goth! (Paperback)
Voltaire has done the best harpoon or lampoon of the New York Gothic culture (and by extension the rest of gothic culture). The art work is top rate, all of the Top 13 lists are included as well as just some wonderful looks at the Gothic Culture and things to do as well as things not to do. I would recommend this book to ANYONE in the Gothic Set, but if you're a real Goth, you already have this book...:[

Oh My Goth!,
By "sallyskellingon" (Louisiana, USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Oh My Goth! (Paperback)
I laughed so hard I was crying. Voltaire puts down anyone and everything: Marilyn Manson, Bjork and even himself! It comes with a warning: "Caution: Do Not Read This Book In Public, You Will Laugh Out Loud!" and it is so true. I would recommend this book to anyone. This isn't an expensive book, and it's worth the amount it's priced at.

Another Great Work,
By Amanda Cleveland (AZ United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Oh My Goth! (Paperback)
I have followed Voltaire's work for several years, and this compilation of his comics is absolutely wonderful. Dark and cynical, he can puncture all the goofy and ridiculous aspects to the gothic subculture. Just a warning to others, if you can not laugh at yourself and those around you, turn away now. However, if your humor is sick and twisted, order this right now! You will not regret it.
