This anthology humor series from Dark Horse features some of the top comic talent in the field such as Mike Mignola of Hellboy and Linda Medley of Castle Waiting.
Mike Mignola’s style could be considered too dark and somber for humor, if these stories were the kind normally found in humor comics. But as it says above the masthead: “Funny Ha-Ha! Funny Strange!” One of Mignola’s contributions is a bizarre retelling of Jack and the Beanstalk which depicts the beanstalk having instantly grown out of a woman who ate the bean. Funny strange indeed!
A constant presence in this four-issue mini-series is the thoroughly weird Pip and Norton, a strip about two friends. Norton is a laid-back, easygoing, nearly comatose purple guy, and Pip is an exuberant, manic, orange character needing continual instant gratification. Their interaction amply fulfills the Funny Ha-Ha! requisite.
