The Daily Compulsion #1

Let there always be an unending supply of punkety-rock comics zines, filled with angular guys flipping off snotty clerks in stores and grousing about their stupid neighbors and all. Here's one of them now. Nathan, who draws himself as a spiky-hair guy with a face like an electrical socket, isn't exactly Boris Vallejo when it comes to drawing, but for this sort of comics three-chord monte, skill is not needed or wanted. His takes on whores and menstruation can be obnoxious, but the story of a poor idiot trying to return a used sex toy is some funny stuff. Tear a hole in your jeans, sit in the corner of your crappy shared flat, and dig this comic.
