"Chippendale's . . . obsessively detailed [comics] feel like [they've] been shot straight from his brain onto the page." -Village VoicePuke Force is social satire written dark and dense across Brian Chippendale's deconstructed multiverse of walking, talking M&Ms, hamsters, and cycloptic-yet-glamorous trivia hosts. In scathingly funny single-page strips that build and build, he takes on social media narcissism, governmental propaganda, racism, and a culture of violence, skewering the malice of the right and the hypocrisies of the left. A bomb explodes in a coffee shop: the incident is played out over and over again from the perspective of each table in the shop, revisiting moments from ten and twenty years before. We see the inevitable as the characters bicker or celebrate, unaware of what's coming. Throughout this dystopic graphic novel, Chippendale uses humor and a frantic drawing style to show how the insidious nature of corporate greed and the commodification of everything have warped society into a killing machine. Sardonic and self-aware, Puke Force asks all the right questions, providing a startling and on-point take on contemporary social issues. Chippendale's artwork makes each panel a masterpiece of thrumming linework and lo-fi magic, as his storytelling wends and winds its way to a fascinating conclusion.

Puke Force by Brian Chippendale is worth checking out if you're into alternative comics. It has its ups and downs; a lot of frames on some story lines are just the same "shot" or has meaningless dialogue, but it can be overlooked as Chippendale has a very unique style and these comics are more exploratory. The high points are literally laugh out loud, pure genius works of satire and dark comedy. It's worth picking up the book even if just for the intertwining stories of the Coffee Whirld Cafe and trivia night in an underground Saloon.
How does one describe Chippendale? He's not a dancer nor a furniture. He is a beautiful mess.
good times
