Leaving Seattle’s Grunge scene behind, Buddy Bradley, hero of Peter Bagge’s Hate comics, is returning home to his native New Jersey, crazy girlfriend in tow. 15 issues of the comic are collected in this epic 352-page volume, covering all of Buddy’s time back home, as he tries to reintegrate with a family that’s just as dysfunctional as he is.
These comics were originally coloured but have had the embellishment stripped away to tie in with previous volumes, and better show off Bagge’s art and Jim Blanchard’s inking.
