[Jerry · Rating 4 out of 5]

“Poor Flaming Carrot, he saves people, risks his life to bring peace and *happiness to all mankind… but he shall never know happiness and peace himself—never true love, only strays and bimbos and one-night stands… a night of love—then out into the cold, cold wind—wandering the world, forever alone, forever lost…”

“Blah!”

Armed with a nuclear-powered pogo stick and helped by sponge boy, baby wolfman, and all hot women, he keeps Iron City safe from ghostly celebrities, singing zombies, and all manner of strange supervillains. Garbagemouth. Chicken thing, a giant chicken hot wing designed by nature to kick things, and people. Cannibal pygmies with a dark secret living in a giant ear (or belly button.) Politically correct but hot journalists.

This is, as far as I know, the final issues of Flaming Carrot, including the final two attempts at photo-comics, one in a ghost house and one at a comic convention.

As strange as it is, it isn’t quite as surreal as Flaming Carrot is known for, but it’s still a great read with laugh-out-loud strangeness on every page.

“Hey, kids! In this issue, see pie fights, ghosts, bimbos, sponge boy, a lost bar of soap… and the first superhero to go through an entire adventure in his pajamas!

“This is my world! Welcome to it!”
