|  | Buddy Does Seattle
Writer/Artist:Peter Bagge
BUDDY DOES SEATTLE collects the entire 'Seattle' arc from the pages of Hate, and is the first time the entire saga has appeared under one cover! Bagge more or less cemented his association with the Grunge subculture in 1992 when he devoted two issues of Hate to a story where Buddy Bradley manages his best pal Stinky's grunge band, Leonard and the Love Gods, whose original lineup included three guys named Kurt. Bagge's characters are some of the most fully realized in comics — Buddy, the slacker antihero; Valerie, Buddy's Prozac-normalized ex; Lisa, his masochistic, worm-eating latest flame; Stinky, his selfish, venereal-warted roommate; and George Cecil Hamilton III, the resident "intellectual," who sits in his room scribbling depressive arcana into his notebook — they display their emotions so openly, so helplessly, so graphically, and with such precision as they attempt to negotiate the ragged terrain of early adulthood that it would all be rather horrifying if it weren't such a riot. Bagge's cartooning aids the cause, with one of the most idiosyncratic and inspiredly elastic and cartoony drawing styles in comics history.

|  | Buddy Does Jersey TP
Writer:Peter Bagge
Artist:Peter Bagge
BUDDY DOES JERSEY is the explosively hilarious sequel to BUDDY DOES SEATTLE, in which a somewhat chastened Buddy Bradley is forced to move back in with his Garden State-based parents, neurotic girlfriend Lisa in tow. This newfound and very relative stability allows him to try to get his life back together again--he even starts working at his own business--but as dubious old friends show up and family members start going off the rails it doesn't take long for Buddy's situation to veer out of control all over again...

TwoMorrows Publishing proudly presents a new book series that spotlights indy comics talent with an outside-the-box approach. Through a combination of original photography, multiple art gallery sections, and an introspective dialogue with each subject, Comics Introspective is unlike anything being published. Volume One features Peter Bagge, whose unique, expressive work runs the gamut from political (his strips for reason.com), to absurdist and satirical (the Batboy strip for Weekly World News), and dramatic (Apocalypse Nerd). From his Seattle studio, Bagge lets journalist Christopher Irving in on everything from just what was on his mind with his long-running Gen X comic Hate!, to what's going on in his head as a political satirist. This debut volume features an assortment of artwork picked by Bagge himself, and is printed on deluxe glossy stock to maximize the impact of the art and photography - all working to make it as breakthrough as the innovator it covers.
