Johnny the Homicidal Maniac: Director's Cut by Jhonen Vasquez

5.0

One of the best comics of all time. It's honestly strange to realize most people know Jhonen Vasquez through Zim and his more silly endeavors, and he ultimately pivoted his career fully into that. But Johnny the Homicidal Maniac dipped a lot more into self-exploration, and mixed a lot of gritty elements and art in with silly nonsense. There'd be deep monologues about suicide ideation and misanthropy, and they'd be brought on by the fact that the main character was denied a Slurpee from a 7-11 analogue. It's honestly great, and as far as comic go I'd put this high up there with things like Maus or Watchmen, even.
