Sometimes you just need a bit of silliness.

In the mid 1990s Marvel Comics published some Beavis and Butthead comic books following the success of the characters on MTV. I've no idea how many issues there were but this book collects issues 5-8.

Lots of short stories with interludes where the boys comment on scenes from Marvel Comics keeping to the style of the animated series.

If you don't like the show then you'll think these comics are puerile nonsense.
If you do like the show then you'll probably admit this is puerile nonsense but it will put a smile on your face, maybe even chuckle, and make you nostalgic for MTV's dominance of the music video scene.

My favourite bit of daftness here is when the boys electrocute themselves with a radio and are then convinced that they have Radio-Activated and acquired super powers despite the complete lack of proof or difference 😂. But with no powers comes a great lack of responsibility or something 🤣. Enter CoolMan and Dr Weird.

Butthead would call me a dumb-ass for reading this. Can I even say dumb-ass now it's no longer 1995?
