Welcome to the first Jhonen Vasquez discussion forum. Since there aren't any other forums for Jhonen at the moment, I thought I would just open this one to general discussion without any specific topic. You can discuss his life, his works, ect. Just keep it interesting. I don't feel like limiting… More the first forum to just one idea. And of course, anyone can create their own forum at any time. Now with that aside, I first would like to say that I hope Jhonen creates a new comic series sometime soon. Accourding to Wikipedia, he's working on a new series, but I haven't found anything else to verify that. On another note, I just want to say that Johnny the Homicdal Maniac is just about the most awsome comic series I have ever read (along with Roman Dirge's Lenore). There just isn't any other comic book series like it. Plus, blood and gore makes Demon Slayer a happy little boy. Hee, hee hee. So whatever you have to say or want to know about Jhonen Vasquez, feel free to post here.
Welcome to the TV.com Forums for Jhonen Vasquez. Here is your area to discuss, dissect and debate all things about this person.
There really is no point in me telling you how amazing Mister Vasquez is...But that is not going to stop me from doing so, anyway. Jhonen Vasquez has had, and still does have, a big impact in my life. His work has helped to shape me into the person I am today. Growing up, Invader Zim spoke to my little demon in me (you know, the one that lives in your squeedly spooch). I was always strange, and the show let me know that I wasn't the only one with such demented thoughts. When I became a little more "mature", I started buying Johnny The Homicidal Maniac comics. It calmed me down, it was a way that I disposed of my subtle pent up anger. So, that kid is chastising me for my medical problems, huh? Lets pretend that , instead of just walking away, I pulled out a knife and cut off their foul tung instead. Now that I had my fun, let's push those fantasies away and continue our day. Reading JTHM helped me from causing harm; the damage that I really wanted to cause, but was to moral to do anything about. When I had surgeries, Invader Zim, JTHM, Happy Noodle Boy, and all the rest of Vasquez's work helped me from getting depressed. Strange, right? That something so macabre could keep me smiling?
These are the reasons why I consider Jhonen Vasquez to be my "Dark Knight". So thank you JV, for all your unintentional help!

Jhonen u r AWESOME! why did u cancel Invader Zim? i loved (and still do) it so much! i bought all the DVDs at Hot Topic and am wearing a shirt as we speak!Thank u for casting Richard Horvitz as Zim! Billy West, Mark Hamill, or Andy Berman is not a good choice. well,at least Billy West wasn't, i'm not sure about the other 2. I haven't read any of his comics but my friend brought one to school and i can tell from the pictures, their insane. the book i saw him bring was Squee. i don't know if i'm going to buy em.
Jhonen made Jthm (Johnny the homicidal maniac), squee, and Invader Zim, he is a genius.
Ever since the first episode of Invader Zim came on, I knew Jhonen was an artist. He is very talented and artistic. His drawings are simply amazing and original, I've never seen such original drawing. Jhonen's very first comic, Johnny The Homicidal Maniac helped through a time I was very depressed, lonely, and angry. Peers were getting to me and I began to hate everyone, as does Johnny, so JTHM gave me something I call pain-food, like getting rid of your pain. Invader Zim made me laugh non stop! Every inch of that show was funny and enlightening. Today it is very under appreciated because it is 'dark.' That doesn't mean the kids considered dark should have to put up with sunshine and rainbow cartoons. Jhonen Vasquez is a dark person, and if the people who cancelled it didn't like it, why did they watch it? Even though Invader Zim is gone, we still have the memories of Jhonens fabulous cartoon. In conclusion of my babbilings, Jhonen is a one of a kind guy. Always fresh and original with his work. Jhonen deserves more tha he already gets. Hopefully someday people will see how original (and funny) his works are. Thanks for your listening everyone! ~*~*~*~*~*~*~BethanStein
Jhonen I Love his works and his style its so..... Unique and I mean that in a Good way of Course. Plainly all I have to say in this review is that Jhonen Rules. Invader Zim was one of The First of his works ive seen though a Few years later while on The Computer I saw JTHM, Squee and I Feel Sick however I was quite frightened by them. Since then I didnt watch Zim that much and I regret that I mean how can I stop watching that show. Last year my Parents got rid of Nicktoons the only Channel I Could view Zim on however when I started to get back into Zim after L&S so I then found out that DVDs were released in 2004 and so eventually I ordered them and so thats when I became more a JV Fan and I wasnt really so freaked out by Squee, JTHM or I Feel Sick anymore. Despite he would never continue Zim it would be cool had he started another series on a Channel that gave him creative freedom unlike Nickelodeon. Thats all I have to say mostly how Jhonen Rules and why I think so.
