We Gotta Get Real Jobs #3

We Gotta Get Real Jobs #3

20 pages, half digest, $3.00, gormlesspillocks(at)gmail.com
20 pages is misleading, since aside from the colour stuck-on bits on the powder blue cardboard cover, there are only eight pages of stuff in here. That "stuff" is drawings of loser-type men saying things like, "I don't really think of myself as 'alone' ... I mean, there's gotta be a word more distressingly hopeless than 'alone'." The drawings are pretty good, and I think I know what the creators were going for (the dark humour side of men who will never get a girlfriend) but it didn't work for me.
