Hate #27
In "Buddy Cleans House," Peter Bagge delivers another sharp, off-kilter installment of *Hate* with his signature blend of dark humor and raw character insight. As Stinky and Butch wreak havoc at the beach with a real gun—because why not?—Buddy finally hits a breaking point, sparking a quiet but seismic shift in his life. The story’s uneasy energy is perfectly matched by Bagge’s distinctive art, Jim Blanchard’s crisp inks, and the subtle, evocative colors from Joanne Bagge and Citizen Color.
