5.0 out of 5 stars Tek Jansen - a must read!, August 21, 2007
By 
Douglas Mann (Virginia Beach, VA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Stephen Colbert's Tek Jansen #1 (Comic)
When I heard that the Tek Jansen comics were coming out, I was at first nervous. Would the comics be just as good as the show, or would they fall short of Stephen Colbert's hilarious brand of comedy and disappoint me?

Luckily, Tek Jansen issue number one managed to be a completly hilarious comic, and I loved it instantly! The humor is not entirely like Colbert's, but similiar all the same. Colbert did have some imput in the script and art for the comic, but it's clear that the comic's writers and artists took their own style and combined it with Colbert's to create a fantastic, entertaining read.

I counted down the days for this comic to come out, and though it came out months later than expected, I finally bought it and devoured it, and I'll be doing the same thing with the next one. The next issue can only get better, as the comic book writers and artists collaborate even more with each other and with Colbert to create such an amazing piece of work that's entertaing for fans of The Colbert Report, fans of comic books, teenagers, adults, and everyone in between!

This comic is too sexy not to buy.

4.0 out of 5 stars Meta-sci-fi, August 21, 2007
This review is from: Stephen Colbert's Tek Jansen #1 (Comic)
I've always liked sci-fi parody more than sci-fi itself. (Hitchhiker's Guide...Futurama...) As such, and as a Colbert fan, I think that this series is just great. Buy it and enjoy...even if, like me, you're not really a comics person!

5.0 out of 5 stars Isn't dat right, my little fuzzy-wuzzy, puddy-shnookums?, August 21, 2007
This review is from: Stephen Colbert's Tek Jansen #1 (Comic)
If you love the self-referential blathering from the smarter, illegitimate son of Bill O'Reilly then this is the comic book for you. Really. Like the Colbert Report does for gas-bag punditry, this comic sends up science fiction and comic book norms and sets them down at a 14 degree angle.

Tek Jansen has the libido of Captain Kirk and the brains of Captain Crunch. Those who are fortunate to live through his help, live to regret it.

The satire works on many levels. I believe there are 7, which matches the number in Dante's Inferno. This explains the horns on the folks in the second story. There should be stairs from the second story to the first, but the first story is a serial that comes without milk.

This review is from: Stephen Colbert's Tek Jansen #1 (Comic)
From the beginning to the end, this is hilarious and true to the Tek Jansen we're used to on the Colbert Report.
I've rarely felt like quoting a comic book so much before !

The Tek Jansen comic book is the perfect addition to the Colbert Report family. Tek is a hilarious (and sexy) character who goes on exciting and hilarious adventures. If you're a Stephen Colbert fan or just a fan of fun comics, this is the comic book for you!

5.0 out of 5 stars Hilarious Comic Worth the Time and Money, August 21, 2007
This review is from: Stephen Colbert's Tek Jansen #1 (Comic)
Stephen Colbert has the Midas touch once again in his latest project, the Tek Jansen comic book. Although Stephen didn't actually write this, he was very involved, and it shows! Those of us who know and love his show (especially the "Tek Jansen" bits) will love this book. I got my copy signed by Stephen!!! I don't want to give away any of the story plot lines before you read it so GO BUY IT NOW!!!! It will definitely make your day!

5.0 out of 5 stars Solar Plexus!, August 21, 2007
This review is from: Stephen Colbert's Tek Jansen #1 (Comic)
This issue of Stephen Colbert's Tek Jansen makes for a wonderful first installment!

The comic includes the first part of Tek Jansen's adventures that will be continued in four future installments. Then an independent "case file" comic featuring Tek Jansen is also included in the second half of the issue.

Stephen Colbert's Tek Jansen is a hilarious comic filled with many quotable phrases. Any fan of Stephen Colbert or just fans of comics, in general, will enjoy this amazing comic!

5.0 out of 5 stars This comic has balls!, August 21, 2007
This review is from: Stephen Colbert's Tek Jansen #1 (Comic)
I think this is the first comic book I've ever read in my life but it was well worth it! If you've got the balls (or thatchers) then read Tek Jansen! It' what Lincoln would have done!

Great first issue. Full of laughs =)
