Assholes [Arc Analysis #83]
from Comic Patrol Pod Hosted by Comic Patrol
it is not often a book can keep us turning the page, whilst making every panel revealed a spit-take of audible laughter and enjoyment. We cant hide our excitement for this book! Not only does this book seemingly reinvent ways to tell multiple stories, but gawd-damn is it funny. A book so intent on showing the juvenile side of two protagonists, as they seeming choose to out-due each others decent into debauchery, foulness and ridiculousness fuelled alcoholism. This is @ssholes. A book filled with vanity of the rich, profanity, classism, ageism, sexism, chauvinism, macho-madness, competitiveness, depravity, insecurity and boyish irreverence. This book has a lot going for it on the surface, its clean paneling and illustrations punctuate the humour, its plotting of story progresses through a game of golf and 18 chapters, its written well and almost too familiar, and its hilarious - almost immediately. What we find just barely under the surface, is that these two boys, are not men, are not heroes, and in this case these two @ssholes are actively trying to avoid any redemption, as we learn more about how these schmucks treat themselves, each other and anyone within earshot. Buckle up sawft cheezes you haven't had a ride until you've ridden with @SSHOLES! --Hit us up at [email protected] if you want to add a submission for a future Arc Analysis-- --Follow the Weapons on Twitter @Comic_Patrol for some extra tidbits of fun (no promises, we may be the @SSHOLES!)--
