ONE MORE YEAR HC

One of our Gosh! Best of 2017 titles!

Hey kids, comics can be funny! Simon Hanselmann's partly-borrowed cast of stoner screw-ups gets a third collection, and as ever it manages to elevate itself above the basic premise of gross-out humour and nasty antics. At the centre of its misanthropic soul lies a real heart (and probably a situation more familiar at some point in our lives than many of us would care to admit). Megg, Mogg, Owl and Werewolf Jones have a depth and pathos that many characters in far more serious works would struggle to find as they negotiate the ennui of their lives by way of drugs, booze and terrible behaviour.
