by Johnny Ryan

Sure, she's smelly and gross, but she's got a heart of gold This is the second collection of Johnny Ryan's weekly comic strip, Blecky Yuckerella, as seen in the pages of Vice magazine and elsewhere.

Customer Reviews

This is my kind of drek!

Johnny Ryan's humor is crude, childish and ridiculously contrived. But he never pretends it's anything else, so that's what makes it fresh. He does get clever from time to time, reminding you that he can. He could be one of the most brilliant satirists of our generation, etc. etc., but he doesn't want to be. He plays to his strength, which is jejune toilet humor. It's the kind of stuff you'd make up if you were thirty years old and were still trying to pass the fourth grade. And you somehow know who Noam Chomsky is. If this sounds like you, then you should read Johnny Ryan. And maybe you and I should hang out.

Hilarious Toilet Humor

Johnny Ryan is a comic genius! No really, he is! I was laughing out loud when I saw this in the store, I liked it so much, I picked it up on the spot! This book is a collection of his weekly comic strip "Blecky Yuckerella." It contains 104 pages of this hilarious four-panel-one-page comic strip. He manages to put Blecky Yuckerella, into the most disgusting and ridiculous situations, and hilarity always follows! His illustrations go perfectly with the material, his cartoon characters are well drawn and the style of humor and illustration go together perfectly. I would say that this collection is NOT for the easily offended, the humor is crude, but hey that's comedy!
