comment |
Six years before Invader Zim, artist Jhonen Vasquez unleashed his unique brand of Black Comedy and over-the-top nihilism upon an unsuspecting world in his very first comic series, Johnny, The Homicidal Maniac.Johnny C. (Nny for short) is a serial killer with various psychological disorders who does bizarre and often nasty things to bizarre and often nasty people. He often has long, serious, intellectual monologues about the state of society, only to end them with non-sequiturs like "Tuesday is UFO day." When not doing that, Nny likes to draw a comic strip about a deranged, foul-mouthed stick figure named "Happy Noodle Boy." His only friends (if you can call them that) are Todd "Squee" Casil, the meek kid next door whom he unintentionally scares shitless, and Nailbunny, a dead rabbit nailed to the wall who is actually Nny's voice of reason.Beginning as a segment in the art journal magazine Carpe Noctem, it later spawned a reasonably successful seven-book series published through Slave Labor Graphics, giving Vasquez a modicum of fame in the underground comic world. All seven books would later be compiled and reprinted as JtHM: The Director's Cut. There were also a number of spin-offs, including Squee, a four-book series which later was also collected and reprinted with filler from all eleven books in a separate section; I Feel Sick, which starred Johnny's ex-girlfriend and almost-victim Devi; and Fillerbunny, a deliberately half-assed trio of books spun off from some Squee filler.In 2013, there was talk of a film adaptation. |

Poisonous Captive: Much of Nny's degeneration could be attributed to the thing behind the wall, who wound up creating the Doughboys with the intent that they could push Johnny into suicide. In order to keep it trapped, Nny also had to make sure the wall was continually coated in wet blood, meaning he wound up killing at least one person he otherwise wouldn't have. |

Only Sane Man: Squee is probably the closest thing to "sane" that this universe is ever going to have, and given how often Johnny accidentally scares the hell out of him, he might not stay that way for long. In the odd little world of House 777, Nailbunny certainly qualifies, as he attempts to keep the Doughboys from totally screwing Johnny over, and Johnny in a state slightly resembling a decent human being. His job is less than desirable. |

An Admirer, of Sorts implies that now that his duty as a Waste-Lock is completed, he's no longer immune to getting caught, so staying in one place for too long isn't the wisest thing for him. |

Even Evil Has Standards: For all the evil he performs, Johnny hates rapists and pedophiles, though this is more due to issues with physical contact. Actually, he seems pretty upset that anyone would want to hurt the easily-terrified child in question. His attempt to reassure said child unfortunately goes about as well as you would expect, especially because he kind of ripped the pedophile's brain out in front of him. |

Anne-Gwish is another mockery towards people who considered JtHM a goth comic because of its art style and its anti-conformist views. |

The Insomniac |
| | Johnny the Homicidal Maniac (Comic Book) / int_3f7b645d |
comment |
The Insomniac: Nny dislikes sleeping; it further distorts his perception of reality. This means he stays awake until he loses consciousness, at which point his body usually continues doing unspeakable things of its own accord. According to his Twitter, he once woke up on the beach trying to paddle a hollowed-out corpse like a canoe. |

Early-Installment Weirdness |
| | Johnny the Homicidal Maniac (Comic Book) / int_4f4372e9 |
comment |
Early-Installment Weirdness: The early comics make no mention of the Wall Monster, and suggest that Johnny repeatedly repaints a wall in his house with blood because he himself can't stand the thought of it drying. The first appearance of the voices inside of Johnny's head features an unnamed fetus character that is never seen or heard from again. This fetus is ironically the voice that ends up winning the ideological debate the others are having by telling Johnny that a commercial he likes is playing on TV and making him completely forget about the argument. The series lacks the futuristic Cyberpunk elements that would come to typify the Jhonenverse, with the small exception of some of the more inventive devices in Nny's (implied to be supernaturally created) Torture Cellar. This may be the result of the universe that got "reinstalled" after Issue 6 being slightly different from the previous one. |

Eldritch Abomination: The Wall Monster. Though, as it turns out, despite its Eldritch appearance and somewhat enigmatic origin, it's actually the antithesis of the typical Lovecraftian monster. While Eldritch critters are meant to represent the truly alien, inhuman and incomprehensible nature of the universe, the Wall Monster is just the opposite: a grotesque creation of pure, distilled, and entirely human hatefulness. |

Rape Is a Special Kind of Evil |
| | Johnny the Homicidal Maniac (Comic Book) / int_8a817c2a |
comment |
Rape Is a Special Kind of Evil: Nny tortures people for the fun of it, and because he feels he has to. He finds the suffering of the ones he is killing something pleasuring and incredible... yet, he is highly disgusted with the idea of raping his victims before killing them. However, this seems to be less because Nny is morally opposed to it and more because he finds the idea repulsive. He even says that this standard doesn't grant him any absolution. |

Stalker with a Crush |
| | Johnny the Homicidal Maniac (Comic Book) / int_8b68d9a7 |
comment |
Stalker with a Crush: After Nny fails to kill her, Devi becomes convinced he's following her, and her fear of him drives her to agoraphobia. JtHM implies she's just being paranoid, though he does show up in silhouette outside her workplace in I Feel Sick, so perhaps he was stalking her after all. Jimmy, sans the crush - he's closer to Stalker With A Fanatic Obsession than anything. |

Asshole Victim: Quite a few of Nny's victims were horrible people who were asking for their deaths, especially those that wind up in the Torture Cellar. Edgar Vargas is an exception who was specifically identified as being a decent person Nny took no satisfaction in killing, but far from the only one — basically, Nny'll kill you for being an asshole, but he'll also kill you for being friends with an asshole, being somewhere in the same general vicinity as an asshole, for triggering his Hair-Trigger Temper, for catching him in a bad mood, for wearing bell bottoms... Nny himself could be this, for those who feel some sympathy for him. |

This renders them obsessively paranoid, vain and violent, as each person thinks the eye's watching him alone and the smallest personal slight or accidental faux pas is rendered unbearable. |

It turns out to have been caused by the Doughboys and Wall Monster holding More than Mind Control over him, but even with them gone, his memories don't return. |

(Well, the murder part was successful.) In the Carpe Noctum strips, he had no qualms with killing using a pistol, probably due to Early-Installment Weirdness. |

And don't insinuate he drinks the blood of his victims. And don't talk during movies he likes. Of course, even if you don't do any of these things he'll probably kill you anyway. Because he's a homicidal maniac. |

Interrupted Suicide: Of a different sort. In one strip, Nny discusses his current attempt to commit suicide to the Doughboys. Before he goes through with it, Nailbunny tells him that a TV show he likes is on. Cut to him laughing uproariously at the TV. In Jhonen's notes in the Director's cut, he says he found the idea of someone failing to commit suicide then losing interest in it to be funny, with a strip showing a proto-Johnny trying to shoot himself with an empty gun, and then going to watch TV. |

Shout-Out |
| | Johnny the Homicidal Maniac (Comic Book) / int_c75df49a |
comment |
Shout-Out: A lot of the borders contain hidden subliminal messages, and can be easy to miss. For example, at the top of the page with the massacre in the taco place in Issue 1, it says "LV 426." In the bookstore, there is a stack of several books by H. P. Lovecraft. This foreshadows the appearance of the Wall Monster. One of the Wall Monster's heads looks like Snoopy. The cockroach is named "Samsa." Lampshaded at least once. Not stated explicitly, but: Hell is other people. A recurring in-universe band is Nine Inch Heels, likely a stand-in for Nine Inch Nails (especially considering the comic began about a year after the band's breakout album, The Downward Spiral, was released). |

Freudian Excuse |
| | Johnny the Homicidal Maniac (Comic Book) / int_c868a42a |
comment |
Freudian Excuse: Completely averted, even for the Villain Protagonist himself (Johnny makes vague mentions of people making fun of him when he was younger, but it's never used to justify what he does). Nailbunny's rant about Nny formally being a great artist also qualifies as an aversion, though it's similarly vague. Vasquez intentionally left Nny's origins unwritten to avoid this. Eventually, though we don't get the full details, the sequel spin-off I Feel Sick implies that he was corrupted by the same force that created the Doughboys. It's always clear that nothing really excuses Johnny's actions, however. |

Mundane Afterlife: Heaven is... people sitting in chairs. Hell is... living with all the people who go to Hell and living with the reason you went to Hell in the first place. There are actually good reasons behind this. In Heaven, the people there are truly happy, entirely contented, and thus lack the desires of living people, who spend their lives looking for happiness. Hell's pretty self-explanatory. Even Nny says that at least in life there are some nice people mixed in with all the jackasses. |

Happily Failed Suicide: Johnny tries to kill himself with a gun-toting robot that will shoot him if he tries to turn it off or answers the phone. After an indignant conversation with some of the voices in his head, he changes his mind and decides he wants to live after all, switching the robot off. As it turns out, the robot didn't work, and Johnny exclaims that he was extremely lucky. The moment after, the phone rings and Johnny, happy to be alive, turns to answer it. The robot then shoots him. He forgot to turn it on in the first place and only did so when he thought he was switching it off. |

Your Head A-Splode |
| | Johnny the Homicidal Maniac (Comic Book) / int_e0789c2a |
comment |
Your Head A-Splode: Johnny briefly gains the power to explode people's heads in Issue 6, when he finds out that those who are in Heaven have powers that vary from person to person, though his guide tells him to refrain from the thought of doing so, lest he'd explode someone's head. He almost immediately turns this power onto a guy and blows up his head a grand total of three times — three, because his head regenerated every time. After the third time, the man gets irritated and does the same to Johnny, who retaliated and... well. The end result is a head-explody war among all of the residents. And a lot of free-floating brain matter. |

Morality Pet: Despite the repeated trauma he inadvertently inflicts, Johnny's kindly (although misguided) treatment of Squee is about as close to petting the dog as he gets. Devi acts as this, too. Almost any interaction between them has Johnny acting much closer to sane than usual, be it the three months before she asks him out or even after she beats the crap out of him. |

Art Evolution |
| | Johnny the Homicidal Maniac (Comic Book) / int_e43c66bd |
comment |
Art Evolution: Nny gets thinner and less mangy over the seven books, as does everything else, really. Very very clear in the early drawings, beginning with Johnny The Little Homcidal Maniac, where his length around the middle is essentially cut in half every strip. The art in general becomes cleaner as the series goes on, and the panels aren't nearly as squished as they are in the first two issues. On the matter of Nny's sexuality, Jhonen had this to say: "He's a coward and I think it manifests itself in many ways. One of them being the fact that's he's disgusted with sexuality. I don't think he has a sex drive and if he does it finds its way out through other means, mainly a knife through the flesh." note The interview containing this quote, on a website that is NSFW, can be found here: http://suicidegirls.com/word/Jhonen+Vasquez+invades+SuicideGirls/ |

Can't Get in Trouble for Nuthin': Deconstructed. At the beginning, Nny never gets caught. If he's reported, the cops will never remember who he is. It doesn't matter how public his sprees are, or how many victims, or even if he confesses directly to somebody's face at length. Once he returns from Hell and stops being a wastelock, this ends, and he's forced to go on the run. |

All Just a Dream: After Johnny's suicide and trip to Hell, Johnny contemplates whether or not it was all just a dream. After all, the universe ending with his death and being rebuilt with his resurrection? Moving Doughboys? A couple of escaped victims roaming his increasingly-labyrinthine house until they encounter and beat the snot from him? Said victims appearing free, without memory, and unharmed after he wakes up? Sure, he knows he's insane, but he knows he's not insane enough to believe that. (Now all he has to wonder about is how Devi heard a Doughboy screaming loudly over the phone...) Additionally, Mmy commented on Nny's hair. |

Easily Forgiven |

comment |
Easily Forgiven: Hell no. When anyone successfully holds onto the realisation that he's a murderer, they're always frightened and disgusted. |

Creepy Child: Though a misunderstood child, Squee's conversations with his teddy bear Shmee show he's clearly not a mentally sane kid. |

Dying Alone |

comment |
Dying Alone: Johnny attempts a murder-suicide to avert this trope. It doesn't work (well, the suicide doesn't; the murder part works just fine). |

comment |
The series lacks the futuristic Cyberpunk elements that would come to typify the Jhonenverse, with the small exception of some of the more inventive devices in Nny's (implied to be supernaturally created) Torture Cellar. This may be the result of the universe that got "reinstalled" after Issue 6 being slightly different from the previous one. |

Doomy Dooms of Doom: Not quite as much as Invader Zim but noticeable. It's still Jhonen Vasquez. |

Pet the Dog: Johnny may be a remorseless murderer, but there are several circumstances that show that Johnny isn't entirely evil, and he is willing to protect Squee above all else. |
