Since posting my first comic here, i've amassed quite a impressive bit of hate email I thought I should share.
I've been told that my 'comics' are crude, boring, suggestive, violent, meaningless, 'not-funny' (P.S. Yeah, that really hurt), 'drug-addled humor', insulting to the mind, 'a good example of humor gone bad' (?), stupid, sinful, hateful, evil, wicked, humiliating (That one's from Scott), and dumb.
I've offened various people with the rampant bloodshed in my strips, but what really strikes me as odd, is that most pople complain that the worst one is where Muzzy eats the kid.
I don't get it. Not at all.
I actually recieved an E-mail from a wannabe womans group (IE just a bunch of teenage uglies on their periods), telling that if I continue to show women 'in a weak and demaning manner' that THEY'LL STOP GOING TO THE SITE! Oh, NO!
Sorry for chasing your key audience away, Scott.
I should also note, that i've received some non-pleasent E-mails from some of YOU.
Am I concerned? hell no. I've talked to Scott about the content of my strips. And, I have good faith that if I were to offend Scott with the content of my strips, he simply wouldn't post them.
So, in closing...
Get off my back, because I'm REALLY tired of people tell ME what I should find funny.
P.S. How do these people GET my E-mail address? Well, since every hate-monger out there already has it, here it is. Feel free to send even MORE hate mail my way.

When I decided to post Muzzy's comics, I did so assuming that people were mature enough to recognize the difference between comics and the real world. Just because Muzzy melts a couple young women doesn't mean that a.)decapitating people is A-Ok, or b.)Muzzy is some sort of crazed misogynist. It just means some character in some fictional comic has more lava than he knows what to do with. The Muzzy in those comics if a fictional character, not a representation of the the author in any real sense.
Here's another thing... Eating children: come on, folks. It's a little thing called HYPERBOLE. Muzzy choses an act so unimaginably reprehensible that it cannot be taken seriously. Anyone that takes that comic seriously needs a reality check, post-haste. Do I support eating children? No. Do I support the humor value of that which is ludicrous? Yes, god yes!
If this has anything to do with what I support, here goes: Do I support violence, drugs, and male chauvanism? No. You wanna know what I do support? Free speech, dammit.

If you all remember, I was about the first person to say Muzzy's comics suck (sorry about that, dude) because the first ones were bland and I didn't like the fact he used himself as a character. And then he won me over BECAUSE the newer ones contain sex, drugs, and violence. Just ignore your critics, Muzzy. They're just bitter because they're not getting enough.

I would like to say, in Muzzy's defense, that, if anything, his comics should be viewed by these radical feminists as a sign of the societal changes they have long hoped and worked for. A hundred years ago, "greasy wop" was an excuse to brawl. "Jew" was a derisive term. "Nigger" was an insult if not a profound affront to a person's humanity...wait, that one's still an insult, but it's changing (if black people can say it, why not cracker-ass me?)... Anyway, those little training-bra feminazis should read between the lines here: Muzzy's comics, with their flippant and insensitive treatment of women as a class of people, illustrate rather vividly the way that women have come to be accepted as equals among men. We men poke fun at each other, squabble and row amongst ourselves, and usually without any ill intent ("Hey wop." "Hey, Jew." "What's up?" "Nothin'."). In the past, mens' attitude toward women (be careful! don't break her! she's a fragile, emotionally unstable female!) has been one of careful and selective interaction. Feminazis, rejoice! You wanted equality and respect? Now you're each one of the guys. Keep up the good work, Muz, I'll see you at Mickey D's for some McFetus later on...bring the A-1 and an appetite. I'm buying.
