Bad Pills #1 Comic Book Review

This originally appeared in Married Punks #13, published in 1998.


Sverre Helmer Kristensen, who has died of bone cancer, delighted in drawing shocking comics, and Bad Pills is pure shock.

Kristensen hits up on racism, Hitler, rape, decomposing bunnies, and Bob Dobbs. These are okay stories, but the best is Kristensen's autobiographical "Almost Dead," which humorously portrays his struggle with cancer.

It's a shame he's gone. His over-the-top subject matter combined with his cartoon-like art had a real style to it. He could've been a contender.
