First thing you should know about me, the lowly reviewer, is i'm a comic geek and a (somewhat former, I just don't have the energy anymore) goth. But even though I've essentailly cast off my gothic ways I still adore this book.
Our dear boy Voltaire isn't afraid of poking fun at many aspects of the overly serious goth lifestyle that really do need a poking.
It's hilarious, obsured and overall just a very good read. It's printed on high quality paper and my copy has held up very well the past three or four that it's been in my proud possesion. Though I do seem to have, tragically, misplaced it during a recent move *i'm weeping inside* It's good enough that I would consider buying it again.
The only thing I could say against it (and it's a slight one at that) is that he tends to ramble a bit in the last issue, though he makes a joke about just making the last issue up as he went along so that very well might be what happend.
A fine read, good laughs all around and very entertaining, even if you're not a goth.

Oh, and I'd recomend checking out Voltaires music aswell, very funny, my personal favs are "No one loves you when you're evil", "My future ex-girlfriend" and "Dead girls".
Happy reading :)

This "book" is terrible. It's not funny, "goths" are lame, and he stole the name of the greatest satirist of the eighteenth century. Lame. I recommend this book to retards and "goths", although they really are the same thing.
P.S. Goths are (well, were) actually an East Germanic tribe that conquered parts of the Roman Empire. God, do "goths" steal everything?
