...Clowes, Joe Sacco, Jason Lutes, Julie Doucet and tens of others. The best pieces match the cartoonist with the material. Carol Moiseiwitsch's splattery black and white imagery lends a horrifying intensity to "Fatal Fellatio." Peter Bagge, of "Hate" fame, punches up several tales, including one about a flipper fetishist, with his loopy graphics...
...title of America's Best Actor--though, he jokes, "I don't think I've ever been in danger of being America's Best Movie Star." Or America's best-behaved one. That scar, for instance: it's the memento of a bar fight with a superbuff gym fetishist--a "mirror athlete," Penn calls him. In 1987 the actor did a month in jail for bopping an extra. His four-year marriage to Madonna made for all manner of naughty headlines. He has lost a few industry friends by making rude remarks about their career moves. In his 20s, Penn...
...music switches fluidly from baroque and Wagneresque bombast to blues, soul and, of course, modern opera. Characters trade obscenities. Michael Brandon's unerringly realistic Springer paces, arms folded, awaiting his cues. He speaks, they sing. It could all easily descend into chaos, but it works.

It's not just the unprintably foul language that is unique. The music is fresh and vibrant; the characters are at once pitiable and funny, and wholly original - except...

The new opera is expected to include such crowd pleasers as a kick line of Ku Klux Klansmen and a diaper fetishist. One hopes that this newfound respectability won't ruin Springer's reputation...
...violence. Like Robert Crumb, Hernandez seems to be blessed with the ability create things mostly for his own turn-ons that also work as art. Though a bit undeveloped in this series, he has always had a way with women characters in particular, somehow indulging in every imaginable fetishist "type" (included here: the voluptuous dwarf, the anorexic yet unaturally buxom stripper, and the usual amazons) while managing to give them some of the most credible and sympathetic voices in any medium. The absurd violence likewise plays with the old scenarios. Issue three begins with a daring horseback rescue that quickly...
