Story and art by Mitch Clem.

Punk-rock culture has a rich, longstanding tradition of anger, nihilism, and good old-fashioned suburban teenage angst, and no one is more headstrong and humorless about punk rock than the punks themselves. Enter Nothing Nice to Say.

Mitch Clem's Nothing Nice to Say leaves no mohawked, leather-jacket-clad stone unturned in its mission to expose the awesomeness and the absurdity of punk culture. Sometimes esoteric and always hilarious, Nothing Nice is so punk you'll think the book was bound with safety pins. The Nothing Nice to Say website sees about 10,000 hits per day. Mentioned in Scott McCloud's Making Comics as an example of comics using the web to create "an explosion of diverse genres and styles."

Softcover, 128 pages, 7-in. x 7-in., 128 pages, B&W. Mature Readers
