Chumble Spuzz

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Chumble Spuzz is a comic book series created, written and illustrated by Ethan "Eef" Nicolle, and published by Slave Labour Graphics. The series started in January 2008 with the first volume entitled "Kill the Devil". The series name Chumble Spuzz originates from a nonsensical Calvin & Hobbes quote.[1]

Volume 1 - Kill the Devil

Volume 1 - "Kill the Devil" When two idiots named Gunther and Klem enter a pig race at the local carnival, neither of them realize that the pig they've won is possessed by the Dark Lord Satan. They consult with Reverend Mofo, a foul-mouthed Southern Baptist preacher monkey who concludes that the only way to repair the possessed swine is to go straight to the source. Calling upon the help of the trigger happy General Woodchuck and his sidekick Kernel Cornnut, the gang heads into hell to Kill the Devil.

[edit] Reception

"Kill the Devil" has received numerous positive reviews highlighting Nicolle's good sense of humour as well as artistic talent.

Wizard Magazine dubbed "Kill the Devil" as an "Indie Must-Read for 2008".[2][dead link]

ComicMonsters.com states that "The comic world needs guys like Ethan Nicolle. This book is a blast!". Some reviewers, such as the Broken Frontier, have gone as far as saying "Chumble Spuzz is amazing. I don’t think anyone who’s read it has walked away believing otherwise."[3]

After reviewing the title, Project Fanboy interviewed the author, where in response to those who view his work as an attack on religion, he was quoted as saying[4],

"My book wasn't made to bash religion. I poke fun at it, sure, but that's because I think that religion is great source material for comedy, especially with the cultural dogmas each generation adds to it."

"...I am not saying that I think religion is a waste of time, as many people seem to think. I just think there's a lot to laugh at."

There has also been notable support from acclaimed comic-book artist Doug TenNapel. TenNapel provided the foreword for "Kill the Devil" where he speculates that character Reverend Mofo seems like sort of a sideways tribute to what he is a caricature of, which author Ethan Nicolle confirms in the previously mentioned ProjectFanboy.com interview.
