Reactions and Reviews

Surrealistic farce of 'Sock' being killed in various ways. More tedious than funny.[1]

'Abrasions and Contusions' is a parody on a well-known, and largely disliked zine story whose initials do not stand for 'Tender Loving Care.' The author (listed as M. Octyme) I suspect of being very closely related to the author of the aforementioned piece. No matter what our attitude to the original, the parody is delicious. And Judi Hendrick's illustrations are enchanting. While reading this, I got so hysterical, I had to be revived by my alarmed mother. Recommendation: secure seat belt before reading! [2]
