Alright, I actually enjoyed this issue. I hate myself for laughing at the horrible, horrible AIDS, hooker and gay/lesbian jokes, which may or may not accuse all female volleyball players of being lesbians, but I honestly can't help myself. I know that makes me a terrible person, but I'm a grown man that still collects funny books. I can't get much worse.
I was initially annoyed with this series simply due to the publicity stunt gimmick that was Ollie's "death", but it's quickly growing on me. As I said in the opening of this review, there's a lot of low brow humour and it doesn't stop with the opening as Ollie is typical Ollie with penis jokes and other innuendo.
However, not much happens here and if, unlike me, you don't care for the crass humour, you probably won't enjoy this issue and might even be offended by it. I'm not sure as I'm pretty dulled to anything remotely resembling political correctness or lack thereof.
Verdict - Check It
