DESCRIPTION:
Concurrently, he’s been churning out hilarious shorter pieces for magazines, alternative newspapers, and other venues, many of which (as well as some Hate backup strips) are collected here. The pleasing hodgepodge includes multipart sequences featuring Bagge creations like hipster wannabe Lovey and clueless suburbanites Chet and Bunny Leeway (resurrected from Bagge’s 1980s series, Neat Stuff); Bagge-scripted stories drawn by other alt-comics titans, including R. From Booklist Ever since Bagge ended his popular Hate series in 1998, he’s been large
"A Great Collection of Bagge Stuff You Probably Missed" according to Dirk Drudgler. This is an outstanding and diverse collection of Peter Bagge's work from the last 15 years or so which was published by various magazines around the country. Some of the material is from the back pages of Bagge's "Hate" comic so if you get that regularly you will be familiar with that stuff. If you are a fan you already love these Bagge collections because much of it is from source material which most of us never read or can't find. This book is definitely for people who are already familiar with Bagge's work because it has very few ongoing characters. For me. some interesting rarities Some interesting rarities --- but where's the other missing links like the Starhead minis or those disgusting Neat Stuff stories? Album covers? other 80's zines? With some of that and a little less "Lovey" this would have been a classic but as it is its still fairly worthwhile, espiecally for the Alan Moore Kool-Aid story and the poignant one pager of buddy's girlfriends. PS If anybody from Fantagraphics is reading this why are backup stories from Hate annual being reprinted but you can't purchase the front stories of H.Annual 2 and 3 in any format?. "He's always funny, his art is always surprising and wonderfully exaggerated" according to Comics Fan. What can I say about Peter Bagge? He's always funny, his art is always surprising and wonderfully exaggerated. I have most of what he's published and I love it all.
(Other collaborators include the Hernandez Brothers and Danny Hellman.) Bagge is one of the funniest cartoonists of the century (20th or 21st), and this collection shows him at his most free-wheeling and craziest 50 times over. But many of the strips are one-off gags or short stories, often with a contemporary satirical slant, including on-site reportage like “So Much Comedy, So Little Time” (from a comedy festival) and more. Peter Bagge’s Other Stuff includes a few lesser-known Bagge characters, including the wacky modern party girl “Lovey” and the aging bobo “Shut-Ins” not to mention the self-explanatory “Rock ’N’ Roll Dad” starring Murry Wilson and the Beach Boys. Also: Dick Cheney, The Matrix, and Alien! Other Stuff also includes a series of Bagge=written stories drawn by other cartoonists, including “Life in these United States” with Daniel Clowes, “Shamrock Squid” with Adrian Tomine, and the one-two parody punch of “Caffy” (with art by R.
