I was inspired to read this ridiculousness after my friend Tim showed me the movie version. It sparked my interest and I had to know more about this beer swilling, kangaroo screwing, tank loving, she devil. The comics did not disappoint. I don't know how I made it this far into my life never having heard of Tank Girl. She's ridiculous and nearly defies definition. She's the most badass chick in Australia and she kicks butt and takes names second. She lives for the moment and has no agenda beyond her own personal enjoyment. I will definitely be checking out the rest of the comics. The characters are bat shit insane, the story line is barely follow-able, and the inside jokes and little notes are a real treat. Soo glad I got introduced to Tank Girl. Better late than never!… (mehr)

It's not often that a person can say they've read two books with mutant kangaroo characters in a month, but I've accomplished it with my 125th and last book of 2007. The illustrations are fun and the lettering is hard to read. The story, such as it is, is pointless and meandering, but you're not reading it for the story, are you? You're reading it to enjoy a scantily-clad, bandage-wearing, cheap-beer-swilling, anarchistic young woman who drives a supertank and has sex with a kangaroo. If you want the same vibe but without the kangaroo, try The Complete Hothead Paisan: Homocidal Lesbian Terrorist instead.… (mehr)
