Okay, the sixth issue was actually pretty enjoyable, but all the others are between 1 and 2 stars. The problem with issues 1-5 of this anthology series is that even when the artwork is decent, the writing reeks of juvenile misanthropy. Too many of the stories sacrifice humor, horror or cleverness at the altar of "This'll make my mom SOOOO angry!" The number of stories per issue that don't follow that mold still aren't worth a dollar to read when there's better stuff available online for free.
Only by the sixth issue do the writers of 100% Biodegradable seem to get their act together and actually put out some inventive and entertaining stories. Buy that one if you're interested and skip the rest.
