Red Room: The Antisocial Network by Ed Piskor

3.0

I wanted to like this more than I did, ultimately. The illustrations are killer, some of the absolute best drawn gore and graphic mutilation i've ever seen in my life. It's truly groundbreaking in terms of it's specific stylistic choices and how far it goes to make you squirm. I have a high tolerance for gore, so this didn't shake me, but it did excite me and that's good, too. The story and writing is kind of bland and crappy, though. I like the plot but the dialogue is just...ugh. I know the characters are mostly supposed to be sleazeballs but it still annoys me how often that translates to using terrible butchered AAVE. Anyways, good comic, i'm glad that I own it because the illustrations are some of the best i've ever seen and I will be cracking this book open again for inspiration.
