I Luv Halloween vol. 2 by Benjamin Roman, Keith Giffen
1.0
I hated everything about this book. It was literally just gross humor and misogyny over and over again. And I usually love gross humor!
There is an entire bit where one character repeatedly refers to a side character as "damaged goods" all because she was medically infertile. This goes on for almost an entire chapter and actually made me want to cry. Thanks for labeling the worth of a woman by her ability to pump out babies. I'm sure your altar to the Duggar mother is almost complete.
One character is frequently referred to as "a retard", which is offensive on multiple levels. She's young and has odd ideas, but I really don't see why that merits the use of a word that is almost entirely seen as a slur now.
The art was boring, the storyline confusing, and the writing just plain bad. Between the literary failings and the utterly offensive content, I wish I could rate it lower. And then burn the book. I can literally think of nothing more fitting for this pile of absolute garbage.
