    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 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.

    If it's true he's making a New Series it better be on Cartoon Network. It'll be canceled early like Invader Zim.

    Actually, I think he's working on a comic book series. Other than that, I have no other information. Besides, Jhonen has mentioned that he will never work in animation again, though that was quite a long time ago.

    However, if he really is making a new animated series, hopefully it will be on adult swim. With the crap they have on now, they need someone like Jhonen.

    Jhonen shouldn't be on TV. Even Adult Swim wouldn't be able to contain him. I enjoy the freedom that he goes crazy with in his comics.

    I'm not sure about that. Other than the fact that Jhonen uses the F-bomb, his comics don't seem to be any more sadistic than much of what's on Adult Swim. What Adult Swim does is try to put as much obscure content as they can in every single episode they make, more so with their new shows. They do it so much, it ruins their shows. People kill each other on Adult Swim just like in JTHM, and in some shows, just as frequently. The main difference is that unlike most of the Adult Swim writers and creators (aside from who made Aqua Teen Hunger Force), Jhonen actually has talent. He can achieve a violent effect that guys like Brendon Small could could never get with shows like Metalocalypse, which features things like guys getting shreaded apart in helicopter blades. Unlike Adult Swim, Jhonen can make murder and infanticde funny.

    He has created many fantastic creations like "Invader Zim", the comic books "Johnny the homicidal maniac", "I feel sick", "squee!" and many more. Jhonen Vasquez is a genious!

    Yep, he created all of those. He's one of my favs. And I really like the social commentary he does in those comics.

    He's one of my favorites. And that's one reason why I like his work. He can take things like a head exploding and make them funny.

    Like in Fillerbunny. I liked how they kept blowing up all of Fillerbunny's friends in the 3rd issue of that.
