OHMYGODDIDYOUSEETHAT?!? So, anyway, I’m sure you stopped by to find out what kinds of Penny Arcade goodness we will be lavishing upon you with this latest collection. Oh, and you came for the cinnamon almond biscotti, of course. But mostly you came because you can’t get enough of the smash-hit web-comic Penny Arcade. Well, my friend, do we have the goods for you! All the Penny Arcade web-comics published online in 2003, a smorgasbord of commentary courtesy of Gabe and Tycho, and more bonus material than you can shake a pigeon at! Huh? Oh, sorry, did I say “pigeon?” I meant to say “stick.” Sorry, but that bird is still really creeping me out. You can tell it’s totally planning something. Can’t you see it watch… More >>
Penny Arcade Volume 4: Birds Are Weird
Funny, because it’s Penny Arcade, and a great way to catch up with the archives while standing on the bus. My only complaint about these books, is that while the written commentary reveals a lot of what they were thinking/doing in retrospect, I feel like it sometimes doesn’t give quite enough context. Rating: 4 / 5
Since I don’t have time to read webcomics daily, It’s nice having them all together. I alos liek teh little “Explanations” or back story on teh bottom of each page. Rating: 5 / 5
I had read Penny Arcade now and then in the past, but didn’t follow it on a regular basis – then while browsing the comics and manga section of the bookstore, the title of this volume just jumped out at me, as I am a cockatiel owner who loves birds in all their weirdness.
The title of this book (even though the contents have little to do with birds :) ), plus my passing interest in Penny Arcade, and great love of video games made me decide I needed this book. And I enjoyed it thoroughly. I love the art, I love the gamer humour, I love Gabe’s Appendix… in short this book is a lot of fun. Highly recommended for fans of gaming and Internet culture. I plan on collecting the rest of the volumes in the very near future! Rating: 5 / 5
This collection of the Penny Arcade comics covers an entire year of their work. While they don’t do story arcs very often, the work included is still fantastic, and introduces some of there newer repeat characters. Rating: 5 / 5
This book was great! Jerry Holkines never lets up on the wit factor. Laugh out loud! Rating: 5 / 5
