Viz expert needed

Roger's Profanisaurus is guarranteed to make you totally lose control in public places - it is just brilliant.

I've always thought that Viz was very well written and some of the strips (Fat Slags, 8 Ace, Rat Boy etc) are very sharp pieces of social satire.

That's why I like it too. Intelligent toilet humour, who'd have thought it?

Rude Kid always made me laugh.

In answer to Nick's query - somehow the name "Stan, Son of Man" springs to mind, but can't really remember...

 

[Abitrary]

It was indeed Stan, Stan, son of man.

My favorite was victorian dad, when the kid brings a mate home and sees a penny farthing outside and says 'right, I'm off. Your dad scares me.'

I have the honour of contributing to Roger's Profanisaurus - I sent some "local terms" that went in there...

My favourite ever viz strip was published in 2000/2001 I think - "Robot Pimp" - pure pure genius. It was about a time-travelling Robot Pimp in a flying pink cadillac who gave a lift to a schoolboy to help him with his history homework!

Anybody bought it recently? I reckon the last time I bought it was not long after Fnaar.

Not for a couple of years but I had observed by then that the price kept going up and the quality kept going down shame

I buy every issue. Bit hit and miss these days, but there are still moments of comic genius every so often.

I noticed the same a looong time ago...but I still have an original Profanisaurus and it accompanies me around the globe, can cause quite a titter!
Viz at its best is a masterpiece of social observation and sharp writing.

Black Bag, the faithful border bin liner, just summed-up the boys yarns of the "sensible" comics of my youth. Brilliant.
