Underground Comics

GERTIES GREASE PIT
by: Flaherty

Rancid, Squeamish, and grotesque.These are words that I would use to describe the comic gerties grease pit. 
Flaherty takes you to last diner you would want to attend and plucks you right in front row and scrounges around in the alley to serve up a steaming pile of spit and grime in every panel.
This comic plays on the little fears and discomforts that we all may have when it comes to dining ,filled with shady individuals, less than desired cooks and meals made to order in the time it takes to flip a coin. Flaherty does a good job at making you rethink your breakfast, shocking your sense of taste and smell. Leaving the reader queasy and strangely exhausted at the idea of food.
