"MOONFLOWER," Part Four-Ernie has double- and triple-crossed so many people he doesn't even remember what side he's on, so how is he the one getting backstabbed? Scorpionus and Moonflower enact their plans: one wants to control how we look, the other wants to control how we think - who will win? Nobody!

    If you are into something really really different and you like uncomfortable clashes, this is your book. You'll laugh and wince and roll your eyes. f you want to catch up, be on the lookout for the trade paperback Cocaine Finger. That tells you all you need to know right there! If you enjoy this, you deny eating at McDonald's and reading the National Enquirer. Read Full Review

    You Don't Read Comics - Russ Bickerstaff Jul 28, 2021

    For all its lack of depth in the way of the main character, the ninth issue in the series actually has quite a sweeping feeling of adventure from the moon to the earth and all over time. Its pretty impressive stuff if you dont think about it too much. That being said, its not like theres a whole lot that could be pounded into Ernie that would make the series feel dynamic in any meaningful way. Ernies had his time to develop. With any luck, Remender and company will coax him into a more intriguing direction in future issues. Read Full Review

    Whatever cleverness was to be found in the pages of The Scumbag early on have faded and all that's left is a stench that cannot be covered. Read Full Review
