Description

"James Kochalka draws beautiful music. -- Nicholas Gurewitch, creator of The Perry Bible Fellowship "[Kochalka] brings the joy back to comics. -- Frank Miller, creator of Sin City and 300 "Easily my favorite comic James Kochalka's ever done. -- Brandon Boyer, BoingBoing Offworld "Sure to solve the oncoming energy crisis, Kochalka is an unrelenting force the world will find hard to deplete. ... SuperF*ckers, his unexpectedly adorably profane comic, refuses to leave any stick in the mud in a bad mood."-- Hi-Fructose "Endearingly infantile... surprisingly poignant."-- The AV Club "Probably the perfect superhero book, as it appeals as much to people who love superhero books as it does to people who absolutely hate them."-- J. Caleb Mozzocco, Las Vegas Weekly "Secretly James Kochalka's best comic? Nah, that's not a secret."-- Joe "Jog"McCulloch, Comics Comics SuperF*ckers collects all four fan-favorite issues of James Kochalka's beloved series, plus the all-new Jack Krak one-shot! Foul-mouthed, filthy-minded, and completely oblivious, these young heroes do everything BUT fight crime _ they're too busy getting high, hazing the new kids, playing video games, scheming to be team leader, and designing new costumes. A hilariously rude look at what super-powered teens would really be like, presented with Kochalka's signature sweetness and charm, SuperF*ckers is an over-the-top super-sitcom with its mind in the gutter and its heart on its sleeve.

But which is better? And might there be a power that is greater than them both? Wiggle power? Giggle power?

This book will have the kids howling with laughter.

Remember mullets and teased bangs? Stonewashed denim jackets and jeans? Well, not everything about the ´80s was lame, because that's when the Garbage Pail Kids ruled the world! Those irreverent, satirical stickers quickly became a pop-culture phenomenon, but they never had their own comic book... until now! In the spirit of the avant-garde cartoonists and humorists who fathered these miscreants, a new generation of alternative-comics creators has lent their unique talents to bring the Garbage Pail Kids into the wacky world of comics. Collects all five one-shots.

Oh, Glorkian Warrior. You were doing so well! You almost had that rampaging space snake under control -- when Buster Glark, your villainous rival in the Glorkian Corps, showed up to make fun of you! He laughed so hard at your misfortune that he gave himself the hiccups. And that was just on the first page of this book.
Things are only going to get worse from here, Glorkian Warrior. But we promise there will be plenty of pie at the end.

James Kochalka Book 3 March 15, 2016

In volume 3 of James Kochalka's off-kilter science fiction series for young readers, the eponymous hapless space adventurer is joined by three horribly annoying little kids. Everything is terrible, and nothing is okay.

Well, that's not entirely true. There's a really great mustache. And a valiant cup of coffee. And a truly dastardly villain. And the Glorkian SuperGrandma even makes an appearance!

With gorgeous, lively illustrations and super silly humor The Glorkian Warrior and the Mustache of Destiny, the third volume in the Glorkian Warrior series, is jam-packed with extra-gross gross-out humor and ludicrously bad decisions.

"Kochalka's work makes me feel like I did when I was six years old. He brings the joy back to comics." -- Frank Miller, creator of Sin City, 300, and Batman: The Dark Knight Returns "Oh, lord, did Pinky & Stinky make me six years old again."-- Artbomb Pinky & Stinky are fat little piglets, but just because they're cuties that doesn't mean they're not brave astronauts! Determinedly, they embark on a daring mission to be the first pigs on Pluto, but things go horribly wrong as soon as the journey begins and they crash land on the moon. Soon they find themselves playing a pivotal role in the moon men's battle to free themselves from the oppression of the American space program! This is an unabashedly fun book, like Star Wars mixed with Pokemon, if you can believe that! Packed with action, adventure, and cute little cuties!

"A landmark book for the kindergarten crowd." -- School Library Journal "Kochalka's command of the comic form is sublime and adorable. Kids will love Johnny Boo."-- Harry Bliss, illustrator of Diary of a Worm The full-color, all-ages hit series returns! In this adventure, Johnny Boo has been eating a little too much ice cream, and now his muscles have gotten all floppy and droopy. Why, they're positively floopy! Meanwhile, our friend the Ice Cream Monster has changed his gluttonous ways and now has big strong muscles, thanks to his new favorite food: apples! Terribly embarrassed by his own puny muscles, Johnny Boo sets out on a quest to find some happy apples that can give him strong happy muscles. But it won't be easy... especially if the Ice Cream Monster mistakes him for a delicious dollop of ice cream! And is that a television inside the monster's belly!? It all adds up to a very silly story about eating healthy.

"The Monkey vs. Robot books are like the best of children's literature, in that they appeal to the joyfulness of literature and art that appeals so much to children, while adults can enjoy the structure and techniques." -- Ninth Art Deep in the forest, robots are gathering plant and animal samples, and bringing them back to Mother Computer's Knowledge Extractor for analysis. When one spunky monkey breaks free of the device, a short circuit burns out the power Crystal in one of Mother's Cognitive Reactors. Now, the robots must find a replacement Crystal... but the one they dig up is a sacred relic from a monkey burial ground. Will the monkey's stand for that? No way! Technology vs. nature, Science Vs. Religion... all wrapped up in non-stop action and blistering FUN!

Welcome to the digital edition of James Kochalka's award-winning, influential, and totally addictive autobiography, American Elf! It's a simple idea -- every day, James draws a comic strip capturing a moment from his life-- but gathered all together, these moments take on rich new meanings. Both silly and profound, American Elf is a portrait of human life lived to the fullest, infused with the trademark passion and magic of Vermont's Cartoonist Laureate. This first collection includes the strip's beginnings at the end of 1998 and all of 1999. In here, James launches American Elf, rents a new apartment, cares for a sick kitty, visits Portugal, buys an iMac, and drinks a lot.

Review: Super F*ckers Kochalka's signature coloringbookcute style meets the crude humor of South Park in this sendup of superheroes. The team is a loosely organized group of slackers with superpowers who care more about getting sex, getting high, and getting even than they do about being heroes. They are all jerks to a degree, so the enjoyment lies not in finding a hero to look up to, but in figuring out which one to ...
