Classic! AWESOME! ADJECTIVE! THANK GOD! A WEB COMIC THAT FOCUSES ON CHARACTER AND STORY!
This book is on par with Calvin and Hobbes for sheer greatness. I can't stop reading it. It inspired me to write my own web comic and never ceases to please and give me a chuckle.
This is the start of just about every major piece of PVP continuity in all of it's glory. Skulls Fez, Marcy, Max Powers, it's all here. About the only thing missing is the start of Brent and Jade's relationship. Great stuff and a must read for anyone looking to get into the series.
I can't recommend this book enough.
hilarious! Great item. Scott Kurtz is hilarious. I had the pleasure of meeting him. He is a great guy.
A great collection of strips! PvP is a wonderful comic strip. If you are not familiar with this comic, this collection is a great way to just jump in and start enjoying this series. If you're an 80's child, gaming nerd, or even just a fan of well produced and genuinely funny comics...you should find a lot to like here.
great comics, poor publishing I've been reading PVP for some time now online, and decided that it was time to a) give something back to Kurtz and b) get some new bathroom reading. Having the comics in dead tree form is great, but unfortunately, the publishing job is awful. I recognize that paper is the most expensive part of the printing process, but it would've been nice if Kurtz or someone at Image decided to spring for some larger gutters. It's impossible to see the end of the strips on the left hand pages and the beginning on the right hand pages without cracking the spine. And this is definitely the sort of book that will lose some pages once the spine cracks. Overall, I'm glad to have it because the material is great, but the physical book itself is pretty poor quality.
