| Blue Monday (Comic Book) | comment |
Blue Monday is a comic series (comprised of small strips, short stories, and longer multi-issue arcs) written and drawn by Chynna Clugston Flores, an indie rock and pop-culture fanatic. The series revolves around Bleu L. Finnegan, a teenager living in early 90's California, her friends, and their misadventures.Published by Oni Press and later Image Comics, most of the stories are slice-of-life fare (school, parties, concerts, pranks, going for pizza, dates), with the occasional supernatural oddness thrown in (floating Jesus heads, a not-so-imaginary Scottish Pooka in the form of a giant otter...) amid the various fart and sex jokes. Aside from its unique blend of Japanese and American humor and subject matter, Blue Monday is also notable for having the main title and the title of each chapter being the title of a song. And while it's drawn in the style of a Japanese manga, the content is purely American.The first installments came out in the late 90's as mini-strips in Oni Comics Presents, but new arcs pop up now and again, the latest being 2008's "Thieves Like Us". The author has stated that she'll keep making new installments as they pop into her head. It is being reprinted by Image in 2016. | |

Perverse Sexual Lust | |
| Blue Monday (Comic Book) / int_16417501 | comment |
Perverse Sexual Lust: In universe. Bleu tries to think about Mr. Bishop the first time she masturbates, but the chaste, Courtly Love she has for him makes getting off difficult. But fantasizing about Alan? Does the trick in no time. She's not sure how to feel after that. | |

The Cameo | |
| Blue Monday (Comic Book) / int_1b65dfad | comment |
The Cameo: Whenever Chynna Clugston Flores does a comic for another series, keep your eyes peeled for the cast of Blue Monday. Clover, Bleu, Erin, and Alan (with Victor in the background) can be found searching for the Teen Titans in Teen Titans Go! #38, and have their own table in the background of a panel in Ultimate Marvel Team-Up. (Note that the coloring is off; Bleu's recognizable blue hair is given to Alan, while she has pink hair). A picture she drew for Nickelodeon Magazine's "The Comic Book" in February of 2005 features a character with Victor's distinctive sideburns. | |

Hilarity in Zoos | |
| Blue Monday (Comic Book) / int_1b67e495 | comment |
Hilarity in Zoos: Bleu and her friends go to the zoo, where every exhibit they see has animals mating in front of them. They eventually realize it only happens when Bleu goes near the animals, making them assume she has some sort of supernatural effect. All of this is very irritating to Bleu, who's dealing with her own budding teenage sexuality. | |

Good Bad Girl | |
| Blue Monday (Comic Book) / int_24c685bf | comment |
Good Bad Girl: Erin is notorious for having her blinds always open for boys to see her get undressed or in her underwear (to the point that Clover's dad knows about it), wears nighties and sexy lingerie to get Alan's attention, but he lampshades this by pointing out that she's "pure as the driven snow, no mater how you try to hide it!" Her goodness unquestionably dies out come Absolute Beginners, though. | |

Hormone-Addled Teenager | |
| Blue Monday (Comic Book) / int_3b27cf16 | comment |
Hormone-Addled Teenager: A pretty realistic take on budding teenage sexuality, with an entire chapter being devoted to Bleu and Victor (separately) discovering masturbation. There's also plenty of angst about who likes who, and if they like the other person back. | |

Love Dodecahedron | |
| Blue Monday (Comic Book) / int_4523420b | comment |
Love Dodecahedron: Let's see: Bleu likes Mr. Bishop, who doesn't seem to have a romantic interest. (Plus, she's his student.) Both Victor and Alan like Bleu, but Victor actually prefers Clover, who sorta likes Victor back but is in denial about it. Erin likes Alan but doesn't stand a chance with him, so she tries to hook Victor and Bleu up so that Alan can't have Bleu (and later actually does go out with Alan, ostensibly to make Bleu jealous). Monkeyboy seems to like Erin but would probably take anyone he could. | |

Idiosyncratic Episode Naming | |
| Blue Monday (Comic Book) / int_ac4ac8e5 | comment |
Idiosyncratic Chapter Naming: Every volume and chapter is titled after a song, down to the series' title coming from New Order's "Blue Monday": The first volume is named after The Who's "The Kids Are Alright". Its three chapters are "There's No Other Way" by Blur, "Substitute", also by The Whonote and later covered by David Bowie and The Ramones, among others, and "Try This for Sighs" by Adam Ant who appears in the story. The second volume is titled after David Bowie, "Absolute Beginners", with "Something About You" by Level 42, "Favorite Shirts" by Haircut 100 (alternately titled "Boy Meets Girl"), "To Sir, with Love" by Lulu, and "Hands Off, She's Mine" by The English Beat making up the chapter titles. The third volume is named after The Cure's "Inbetween Days" and contains chapters titled after "Dead Man's Party" by Oingo Boingo, the band The Blue Belles, The Cure's "Lovecats", and "Nobody's Fool" by Cinderella, which itself is made up of two parts, "Everything's Gone Green" by New Order and "Everybody Plays the Fool" by The Main Ingredient. The fourth volume is titled "Painted Moon" after The Silencers' song, with the chapters "How Soon is Now?" by The Smiths, "Pictures of Lily" by The Who, "Blues Before and After" by The Smithereens, and "I Confess" by The English Beat. The title of the fifth, most recent volume is "Thieves Like Us", after another New Order song. | |

Cycle of Revenge | |
| Blue Monday (Comic Book) / int_b7042372 | comment |
Cycle of Revenge: And HOW! Never, EVER tape a girl bathing and show people. You'll lose your porn collection in a ball of fire. Of course, if you made copies, don't let the girl know or she and her friends will beat the shit out of you in front of the whole school during a rigged soccer match. Of course, by that point, you're justified in sending a copy to air on local cable access. And this isn't even taking into account the mass TP-ing of a house or the pube-burgers! | |

Locker Mail | |
| Blue Monday (Comic Book) / int_c045d894 | comment |
Locker Mail: Victor writes a mushy letter to Clover asking her to the Valentine's Day dance, but sticks it in the wrong locker. It ends up in the hands of the incredibly homely Sally instead. It's later revealed that he did put it in the correct locker. Clover was so angered by Victor writing the letter in a way that bettered his chances of getting a date from the three main girls that she stuffed it into Sally's locker. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Blue Monday (Comic Book) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: As noted, the chapter titles are all taken from songs. Also a couple to John Hughes films. Victor describes his first Valentine's Dance as having him stand by the wall "like the losers in Sixteen Candles," and Clover's prized possession is a copy of Some Kind of Wonderful, which she is seen watching in a later chapter. The cover of Painted Moon parodies the silent film A Trip to the Moon. The Halloween Episode parodies several Horror Comedy works, including Dark Shadows and The Rocky Horror Picture Show (with Monkeyboy as Frank-N-Furter). | |

Love Letter Lunacy | |
| Blue Monday (Comic Book) / int_ca855eaf | comment |
Love Letter Lunacy: Victor writes Clover a romantic letter asking her to the dance ... too bad he stuffs it in the wrong locker! It's later revealed in In Between Days that Clover did get the letter in her locker but was so angered by Victor writing the letter in such a sneaky way (leaving off the name to better his chances of getting a date from the three main girls) that she stuffed it into Sally's locker. | |

Art Evolution: Over time, Chynna's art has matured, as have the character's appearances, despite the fact that they supposedly haven't aged more than a year. | |

A-Cup Angst: Bleu rarely gripes about her less-than-ample chest, though losing a contest for Adam Ant tickets because she didn't have big ones that she was willing to expose stung quite a bit... | |

Moment Killer: In "Lovecats", Clover and Victor finally have a Big Damn Kiss... only for the others to find them a few nanoseconds later. They immediately separate and move several feet apart before their friends can see. | |
