Product Description
Mayhem and violence rule in this collection of issues one through seven of Jhonen Vasquez’s Johnny the Homicidal Maniac, as well as material seen before only in Carpe Noctem magazine. Dark and disturbingly amusing, JTHM follows the adventures of Johnny (you can call him Nny), who lives with a pair of styrofoam doughboys that encourage his madness, a wall that constantly needs a fresh coat of blood, and–oh, yeah–his victims in various states of torture. Join Nny as he frightens the small boy next door (Todd, known to fans of Vasquez’s work as Squee), thirsts for Cherry Brain Freezies, attempts suicide, draws Pleased Noodle Boy, and tries to uncover the meaning of his homicidal being.

This is a sick, unfunny, poorly-drawn collection of gruesome murders, scenes of torture, and so on. It offers no insight into why a name would kill, and it’s just completely NOT FUNNY. No way is this worth reading; go read Ghost World as a replacement for. I’m a BIG fan of Vasquez’s Invader Zim, so this loser was a BIG disappointment. At least I got it from the library rather than shelling out the bucks. The people giving this five stars need to read a real book occasionally.
I suppose if you’re under 25 you might find this appealing in a psychotic, anti-social sort of way; if you’re not, certainly skip it.

Drawing :A real terrible job of drawing, you can find a kid drawing better but it works. Anyways, some text can be hard to read.
Tale :The tale is too erratic to be considered a right tale, mainly they are just a bunch of feeling of the leader (Jhonen = Jhonny? Maybe. ). But like every spooky comic, to have a clear and concise plot don’t make the magic. ^_^
Is the best comic ever of this genre!!. I like a lot. It’s not about the tale or graphics or “its not equal to invader zim”, it’s about the spooky feeling, it’s not about a single carnage, is about the why the carnage (for finally establish that there are not a clear reason for it so it will make a sense).
So why i give a 1 star?. Because he failed in the more special task :to take a bunch of readers that say “this comic stink!”.
Anyways if you like it, then grab “Squee”, it’s about the same. If you want a bit more standard history then buy “I feel Sick”.
Or if you dislike the bunny then buy “fillerbunny” or “suicide bunny”, both are recomended for all anti-bunny

I like Invader Zim, so I thought I would give Johnen Vasquez’s comic book a try. This comic book is nothing like the darkly amusing cartoon I have loved so much. Who would really read such a thing? People who reflect animal cruelty is really amusing? Johnny talks to a dead bunny that he bought from a feed store, fed once, and then nailed to the wall – presumably while it was still alive. If you reflect that’s excellent entertainment, then I am certainly concerned.

The reviewer who said this is the comic-book equivalent of the Insane Clown Posse couldn’t be more right. I have no problem with violent satires of modern society–as a matter of fact, “American Psycho” is one of my favorite books–but JTHM is just idiocy masquerading as something deep and meaningful. The artist/writer, Jhonen Vasquez, seems to be nursing a decades-ancient resentment of the well loved kids who selected on him in high school for being a mopey Goth–thus, the “Johnny” character–and is now taking revenge by putting out this comic. Maybe if there was something original kicking around in these pages it’d be redeemable, but it’s a cut-and-paste pattern of gushing blood and severed limbs, with the obligatory passages where Johnny (or “Nny,” if you prefer) attempts to wax intellectual (to no aim, sorry to say). Vasquez tries really hard to poke fun at the whole “Gothic” subculture but ends up just glamorizing it…then again, what more can you expect from a comic that’s a primary fixture in Hot Topics nationwide?
Anyone with a brain should seek out something by R. Crumb and place this for the recycling bin.

Johnny the Homicidal Maniac was recomended to me by a close friend of mine about a month ago. Having been a fan of Jhonen Vasquez and his work, I trusted that Johnny would not disappoint.
You haven’t the slightest thought how incorrect I was.
Johnny the Homicidal Maniac is the most sickening, distrubing, perverted and depressing comic book I have ever had the displeasure of reading. though I had expected a excellent amount of violence and gore, JTHM goes out of its way to make obvious the authors ignorant and over-blown view of insanity. Vasquez seems to have written the book only to make the inner most bile from the pit of the readers stomach to rise to the tip of their tongue.
JTHM follows the escapades of a irreparably distrubed teenager who feels the need to cruelly murder everyone who looks at him the incorrect way. Worse yet, the leader tries to make the reader feel compassion for the soulless maniac by attempting to convince the reader that society is the single cause of madness. This exhibits one of Vasquez’s many ignorances toward the human mind.Contempt for ills of society is common is a usual and expected viewpoint, but it is in no way an excuse to take away the lives of the innocent. Life is cruel, it is a universal fact, but right might lies ones ability to cope with it and see the beauty in life itself. Thus proving Johnny to be nothing more than a pseudo-persona, a personality that is missing many fundamentals of human scenery.
Although, I congratulate Vasquez in finding a way to profit from the ever-dreary, ever-melancholy set of misfits known as Goth. It sucessfully targets and indulges the cliché fanatasies of most every Goth: to take revenge on the society that so wronged them. Hence, the comic book is privileged by anyone who wishes to blame a name, nay anyone else besides themselves for their gloomy lives and weak character.
Though a very talented artist(which merits the single star I had agreed the book), Vasquez had well fallen not more than my expectations of the book. Trust me reader, i had agreed it a honest chance. But i was left insulted at the fact that the leader would regard his reader so small as to print such an abomination as Johnny the Hoicidal Maniac.
