GWAR is back... in Comic Book form!
This last week I've been dying of a plague of some sort, but I was lucky enough to have the honor of reviewing an Advance Copy of the 1st issue Gwar & Matt Miner's new Comic Book Series 'ORGASMAGEDDON'. The 1st issue will hit Comic Shops (And anywhere that sells cool comics) this Wednesday, June 7th! It is being published through Dynamite Entertainment. It’s GWAR how can it be bad? Honestly though, this is a great Comic Book & not just because it is based on GWAR. It's got all the Sex, Blood, & Violence you'd expect from GWAR. It's witty, relevant, & very funny. The story begins at the point in GWAR's mythology, After the death of Oderus Urungus, & after the arrival of their new singer, Blothar. It skips their origin, & kicks off right into present time to start the 'ORGASMAGEDDON' story line. In short, it's GWAR vs. Sawborg Destructo vs. their newest enemy (Mr. Perfect) throughout time. There are a series of events that happen through the ages leaving GWAR responsible for (Yet Oblivious To) effecting a lot of major events in history. Admittedly, it is a little confusing, but once the book starts to hilariously explain itself through jokes & mishaps, it is a strangely engrossing story. There are returns from many familiar faces, and new characters are also introduced to the lore. Visually the book has a lighter feel than you would associate with this kind of story. It doesn't take itself too seriously, & isn't afraid to break the 4th wall. It has very brilliant art, but more cartoon than horror. It's got enough intrigue, boobs, death, & penises to keep us rabid Bohabs interested, while remaining fresh enough to entertain the young at heart, the devious, & the intellectuals. Overall it is a great read, not only for GWAR fans, but for anyone who likes their entertainment fun & daring. This is not GWAR's 1st comic book, but it is GWAR's 1st comic book to be released to shops on a mass scale. On Wednesday, Grab yourself a piece of more
