mehsi's review against another edition

I received this book from Netgalley in exchange of an honest review.
Eeep! I just love Owlturd/Shen/Andrew's comics. I have been reading them for quite some time, and I am delighted that he is finally getting a book filled with them.
This one didn't contain anything new, at least not that I could see, but I didn't mind. It has been some time ago since I read them, and while they are vaguely in my mind, I still laughed, still nodded along, still agreed.
This one is all about life. Life punching you in the face when you least expect it, Life with all his buffness. But also about logic and emotion (who should you fear more?), about surviving, about sleep deprived moments, about coffee.
The comics are generally one page, but there are a few that are 2 pages or longer.
I definitely agree with showing life/emotions with the use of buff guys, because seriously, life deals out some heavy punches, and those can only be done by some big buff guys.
Shen/Owlturd/Andrew's art is just fabulous, his style is fun.
All in all, I would highly recommend this one to everyone, perfect for people who never heard of this artist and his fans.

Received via Netgalley in exchange for a fair and unbiased review.
Shen comics are your typical Tumblr fare, making jokes about life events and mental health. They're well drawn and almost never fail to make me laugh. There's nothing that perks up your morning like reading a comic where LIFE is a massively roid raged character who wakes you up with a studded baseball bat.
But along with the humor based on life problems, Andrew comes up with actual sweet adorableness, and those are sprinkled through the book like tiny rays of hope, and I LOVE IT.

'Emotions Explained with Buff Dude' by Andrew Tsyaston is a collection of comics about (mostly) bad reactions to emotions.
The humor here is the kind of self-dialogue between the main character and some labeled emotions. The humor is in some of the terrible advice that is given, but along the way, there are a few nuggets of truth to glean. It's a fun collection and I enjoyed reading it and laughing at the comics and myself.

I absolutely loved this. It was such a fantastic and quick read, and it's a shame that it was over so soon. I loved the cartoons and it was hilarious and relatable, and honestly, just wholesome overall. 10/10 times would recommend this.
