Peter Bagge anthology: Buddy Does Seattle

Mark Frauenfelder 6:16 pm Fri Feb 11, 2005

Artist Bagge Buddy Seattle Hate was one of my favorite comics books. Written and drawn by Peter Bagge and published by Fantagraphics beginning in 1990, the best storyline in Hate was the continuing adventures of Buddy Bradley, a lazy, grumpy, believable post-adolescent living with a variety of even sadder-sack roommates and masochistic, psychotic girlfriends in Seattle. The stories had captivating plots and characters and after reading an issue, I was hungry for more.

If you've never read Hate before, you're in for a treat. Fantagraphics has just issued a 336-page anthology of all the Buddy stories from Hate. You can buy it on Amazon for $10.17, which is the steal of the century. Link
