OK. Where do you start with Body Bags? You know how Kill Bill Vols. 1 and 2 are chock-full of senseless, over-the-top violence? That’s pretty much the gist of this series from writer-artist Jason Pearson, who is obviously having fun here. Clownface, the protagonist who stabs a machete into a pregnant woman’s stomach early in the first issue, is a “body bagger”—a bounty hunter to you and me, and he takes no prisoners and brooks no interference from rivals. Clownface’s daughter, Panda, wants to be just like her dad; her sexy, gun-toting cheerleader outfit and kick-butt attitude are more than enough to make him proud.
