The Playboy #[nn]
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis volume collects Chester Brown's autobiographical comic strip 'The Playboy,' originally serialized in his series 'Yummy Fur.' It recounts Brown's experiences as a young man grappling with his compulsive purchase of Playboy magazines and the moral and religious conflicts this habit creates. The work is a candid, introspective exploration of guilt, sexuality, and the artist's relationship with his strict Christian upbringing.
In "The Playboy Part One," a young man named Chester Brown becomes obsessed with hiding his copies of Playboy in secret spots—a field, then a wooded lot—only to return and find them gone or ruined. Each disappearance deepens his unease, turning what began as a quiet act of concealment into something darker and more unsettling.
