Megahex by Simon Hanselmann
fast-paced
2.0
This was described to me by a friend as a stoner comedy type of thing, and I thought “sure, why not?” A comic about a perpetually stoned witch named Megg who goes on adventures with her cat (and maybe boyfriend?) Mogg, their roommate Owl, and their friend Werewolf Jones (all of which are also perpetually stoned and/or drunk) sounds alright.
It’s silly and nonsensical at times (fine), gross and derogatory at others (meh). The objectionable bits felt a lot like a teenager trying to be super edgy and they weren’t funny at all. They just didn’t feel necessary. At best, they make some people chuckle and at worst, they seriously offend others. And the rest, like me, don’t care. What’s the point?
I’m not a person who tends to dislike unloveable characters as long as they are well-written or important to the story or whatever but the characters of Megahex were horrible. Except Owl. He who had some nice development and it was actually interesting to watch him grow.
