Canada loves the Squalids! You can depend on your nausea as these loveable sickos explore the art of personal and public degradation. These well drawn degenerates are a couple: Jane (occasional prostitute and eternal flake) and John (addict and asshole). The comic takes us through their lives including Jane’s abortion and John’s inevitable overdose. In the heartbreaking final page they are tossed out of their apartment and end up fooling around in a dumpster. The Squalids are pitiful, revolting and hilarious — they are a warning, a message, a joke and one seriously dysfunctional couple.
