Crowded #1 cover by Ro Stein, Ted Brandt, and Triona Farrell
Charlie works a dozen odd jobs on a daily basis to keep herself fed, and Vita is a work-for-hire gun one can employ through an app. The crowdfunded assassination app, "Reapr," yeah, that probably isn't happening anytime soon, but that's the satire and artistic license It's a brutal satire of crowdfunding and said work-for-hire apps that[...]
Die!Die!Die! #1 cover by Chris Burnham and Nathan Fairbairn
All the characters waver between obnoxious and morally bankrupt, and none of them are funny. Also, I get it, Connie Lipshitz is HRC. I'm not sure what the comic is trying to say with its attempted satire either Is Connie evil? Misguided? Put into a corner and just trying to do her best? What is it? Extrajudicial[...]

With their eighth and final season only a few months away, co-creators Fred Armisen and Carrie Brownstein will[...]
Post-Modernist Satire
Remember that this is a satire, and we tried to keep it as simple as possible It is a multi-layered, subtle work and can be read on any level In fact, unless you are a masochist, we do not suggest digging too deep! We invite you to take a closer look into Hopeless on Kickstarter[...]
Max Bemis Brings The Most Savage Comic Store Satire You've Seen In Crossed Badlands
You thought that the Big Bang Theory comic store episodes were a little below the belt? That Eltingville was as savage a satire on comic shop society that you could ever see? Then you didn't read Max Bemis and German Erramouspe's first issue of Crossed Badlands last week, published by Bleeding Cool's own publisher Avatar. To recap,[...]
