Absurd comedy from the webcomic years

Brad Neely’s webcomics bring historical figures, fairy-tale creatures, wildlife, and superheroes into skewed gag scenarios. The collection ranges from hungry bridge trolls and limousine-riding werewolves to Caesar’s purported killer, Jeffrey, alongside other eccentric creations. Neely’s reflections on his work accompany the cartoons, adding context to a body of work that the publisher frames as a snapshot of early webcomic culture. The book gathers material from Neely’s webcomic work during his rise as an online animator, connecting these comics with the irreverent sensibility also seen in his other internet and television projects.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Adults interested in humorous comics and absurdist gag cartoons.
  • Readers curious about early webcomic culture and Brad Neely’s work across online animation, comics, and television.

Book overview

Hungry bridge trolls, limousine werewolves, and other absurd characters populate these delightfully irreverent gag cartoons from the golden days of webcomics.

Beginning at the dawn of the new millennium, the animator Brad Neely materialized as one of the funnier voices on the internet. Youtube hits like the foul-mouthed George Washington, his demented audiobook retelling of Harry Potter in Wizard People, Dear Readers, and the alarmingly prescient Adult Swim TV show China, IL (starring the voices of both Greta Gerwig and Hulk Hogan) all reveal how Neely captured a kind of freewheeling online spirit that is fading fast.

During this ascent, Neely was also quietly mastering another form, the webcomic, where he spliced together historical figures, fairy tales, wildlife, and absurd gag setups into truly laugh-out-loud cartoons: hungry bridge trolls ready to devour local "chappies"; Caesar's real killer (Jeffrey); the Boo-Boo Maker; limousine werewolves; superheroes trying and failing to rescue Christ; and more eye-blasting thrills.

Gathered here for the first time along with Neely's reflections about his work, Creased Comics is a portal into a truly individual creative mind, and a snapshot of some of the best days for webcomics.
