New Releases by Peter Bagge

Presents the author''s political and social commentary on both a national and local Seattle scale, focusing on such topics as civil liberties, homelessness, and political campaigns.

Software Engineer Perry and his friend Gordo are two average suburban guys who just wanted to go camping in the North Cascade Mountains near Seattle -- but Kim Jung II had other plans. Now Seattle is a smoldering nuclear wasteland and Perry and Gordo are about to be put to the test in ways they have never imagined!

by Peter Bagge The latest installment in the increasingly eccentric life of Buddy "The Crazy Guy Who Works at the Dump" Bradley involves a war over scrap metal, of all things. Plus, Buddy''s old pal and business partner Jay takes over the auto junk yard next door to Buddy''s place in an attempt to capitalize on the rising value of used steel. Watch what happens when these too former collector geeks butt heads over a filthy, noisy, heavy yet priceless commodity! Also in this issue is the final chapter (which works as a stand-alone story) of Bagge''s "Bat Boy" run in the Weekly World News, and Lovey once again gets involved with a Man of Mystery whose "mystery" is of questionable taste! And as always, there are other odds and ends that round out this one-man anthology.

At the end of Buddy Does Seattle, with his rock-impresario career in tatters, his friends dispersed, and his career opportunities at zero, Buddy had decided to return with his tail between his legs (and his neurotic girlfriend Lisa on his hands) to his native New Jersey. Buddy Does Jersey collects all 15 issues of Hate describing the arc of Buddy''s East Coast experience, including his launch as a small businessman (co-owning and running a nostalgia store with the dubious Jay) and his reintegration with his family (his sister now a tired mom, his brother still pretty much a psycho, and his parents — well, wait and see). Also included in this volume is the shocking final fate of the exuberant Stinky — a story that caused jaws to drop in unison all around the world when it was originally released.

Bradley décide de rentrer dans son New Jersey natal, toujours en compagnie de Lisa, sa copine névrosée. Après une catastrophique expérience de commerçant et une laborieuse réintégration dans sa famille, il doit faire face à la soudaine conversion de Lisa au lesbianisme et à la fin tragique de Stinky.

Odio (Hate) chronicles the misadventures, life experiences and repugnant habits of Buddy Bradley, oldest son of America''s most dysfunctional suburban family. Buddy''s moved to Seattle, which Bagge portrays as the grunge capital of the U.S.; a place of cheap apartments, cheaper drugs and plenty of lowlife, with rocker deadbeats working in used bookstores and organizing bands. American satirical cartooning at its most inventively hilarious. -Publishers Weekly I Love Hate. -Matt Groening creator of the Simpsons

These legendary stories, from the classic first fifteen issues of Bagge''s Hate comic, are a defining icon of Seattle''s early 1990s culture, as well as Generation X in general. This is the first time these hilarious stories, starring the hapless Buddy Bradley and his cast of loser cohorts, have ever been available under one cover, and never have they been available at such a low price! Bagge''s riotous tales of the early 1990s subculture are more hilarious now than ever, and find out why he has been praised by R. Crumb, Matt Groening, John Kricfalusi, Publishers Weekly, Entertainment Weekly and many more as a comedy genius.

The colorful, bizarre, and trenchant world of the Bradleys, America''s most dysfunctional family, comes to life in a second caustic collection of comics.

The confluence of cinema and comic books is a frequently raised subject, but now veteran motion-picture storyboard artist Pete Von Sholly bridges the gap once again! Morbid Volume 2, the sequel to last year''s groundbreaking publication, blurs the line between these two mediums even further. Von Sholly takes the time-honored European "fumetti" method to its next level with custom-sculpted models, costumed actors, and computer-generated special effects! The stories themselves run the gamut from tongue-in-cheek lampoons of classic sci-fi movies to gut-wrenching horror in the Lovecraft tradition. The future of graphic storytelling may well be in Pete Von Sholly''s Morbid!

With sharp characterization and dead-on satire, this book collects some of the sharpest, funniest stories about American life ever set to paper. Butch, Buddy, Babs, Mom and Dad redefine "nuclear" family: as in fissionable!

Also, an embarrassingly honest appreciation of contemporary teen pop music, as well as a back-up story featuring Lovey. FC, 48pg
