Andy Garcia<\/strong> (Slave Labor Graphics 1996)
\nNo ISBN<\/p>\nAndy Garcia’s eccentric adventures of art director and underground cartoonist Seth Throb were one of the alternative highlights of the 1990s, and fans (all too few, I regret to say) watched as a talented creator grew in skill and imagination with every succeeding page as he revealed the purely insane saga of his hero’s ordinary life in and the greater and so much weirder metropolis of Oblivion City.<\/p>\n
Manic humour is the order of the day here, centred around the Oblivion Caf\u00c3\u00a9 (House speciality: Chilli laced with acid) featuring Throb, roommate Wuffle Head Spurt, his girlfriend Tabby (who murders the Mayor of Oblivion City every Thursday), Meggazar Dude (the world’s only epileptic superhero), the Hellish Demon Evil Willy and the sundry other billions who extraordinarily inhabit the very strangest city on earth.<\/p>\n
When this eccentric twisted and unique fun-fest was released as a nine-issue series in 1991 through 1993 from Caliber, it was a comic you had to see to believe. The same still holds true. Hunt this book down. You’ll be glad you did.<\/p>\n
