Of course Anne Gwish is a recurring character, she's the personification of his fan base (or at least the worst parts of it). The only bad part of being a creator is you can't control who likes your stuff; you have to take the good with the very, very bad and be grateful that anyone likes it. But you are still free to skewer the people who claim to be fans who "get" your work when they very much do not. At this point, the stuff just writes itself.

MST3K Cave Dwellers. It's a running gag but that part was at the end.

You...you showed a picture from Ruby Gloom. ...could you, by any chance, do an episode about her or any character from the show? Please?

I think the lesson to be learned from Anne Gwish, specifically the fact that she always gets away with her shit, is that while it's fun to imagine killing the people who annoy you, more often it's better to ignore them and let them do their thing.

"Anne Gwish AKA: bitch" I love you, Jhonen.

"MY BUISNESS IS DONE"

I blocked those miracle whip commercials in my mind. Just watching it again makes my bowls do a twist something fierce.

1:36 "Um, could somebody give me some toilet paper?" "YOU SHOULD'VE CHECKED BEFORE YOU WENT!!!" *BOOM!* LOL! I love that part! XD

Most people freak out when they find something they don't understand. If I don't understand something, I tend not to care as long as no one is getting hurt. As a result, I have a very diverse group of friends.

Well, in a story arc, Johnny, of course, dies. Going to heaven and causing mayhem (though not all his fault), he's sent to hell. After touring the place a bit (even running into some past victims) The Devil, or Senor Satan as he prefers to be called, sends Johnny back to the real world, almost completely bald (hence why sometimes you see him with those weird antennae things, it's his hair). So no one really knows, not even Johnny, I just presume he's a character who can do what he wants.

"The cheerleader,pure evil!" LOLXD

Ah, love this show. I wish I could get a hold of these... graphic novels.

8:35 - "Citizen Cane" Can't tell if joke or actually misspelt

I laughed when Zim said "Garbage!"

why did i become obsessed with this at 13... oh well at least it got me into art school

That my friend would be the Invader Zim opening theme

OF COURSE!

00:10 The creator of Invader Zim my favorite character :D

I hafta see that 'Citizen Cane' movie

do devi.d frum the i feel sick spin off

2 fun facts the "Z?" means question sleep apparently Jhonen C. Vasquez has a fear of sleep and his characters usually have insominia and he was a big fan of the comic book version of teenage mutant ninja turtles. I have the director cut of the comic's which i felt slightly disappointed that they didn't have some of the stories in that, granted they might show their age cause they had current movie references (like batman and robin jokes) but i would still of liked to see um

I love invader zim so much, I made a stuff plush of MiniMoose.

That's one...

OMG I can hear Linkara in the background! *fangirl squeal*

omg, I heard the ruby gloom theme. Great video!

muahahahahaahahahahahahahahha...LOVE IT!!!!!

This is so relevant now. All the goth posers became. Well, you know who they all became but they haven't changed a bit. it's all about fitting in while pretending to be unique.

1:38 "somebody put shit in my pants"

8:27 sucks to be me, I answered them all with Tenchi Muyo DX

VERY insightful analysis of one of Jhonen's viewpoints, CR! :D Though I noticed something in one of the video clips... why does the Monarch look SO much like Ra's al-Ghul?? o.e

Wow that was interesting! I never watched Invader Zim but that "graphic Navel" sounds cewl! I'll look into getting it and seeing if i like it! I like the psycho stuff! I use to be goth in high school but i moved into the group I'm more into and that is Metalheads! We love comic and the occult without any real set rules of what counts as a real metal fan!

i hope cr makess a video about the protagonist. seems like a rather troubled young man.

You know the music during JtHM's intro sounds familiar. Is that Sonic music?

i LOVE Invader ZIM

I remember the people in the "it's not a comic it's a graphic novel" but sadly I can't remember what the name of their show was

1:11 Its not a comic its a Grapic Novel lol

Beetlejuice!

Oh my god Anne Gwish is literally the personification J.V's fanbase. Goth people who never grew out of their emo preteen phase and are so cringey it makes reading any of J.V's work unironically feel like a sin. The 16 year old girls who wear those 'normal people scare me' t-shirts, the douchebag guys who listen to screamo on full blast without headphones in the high school cafeteria, and the 20 something year old guy who smells like old pizza and obsesses over goth girls to the point of it being creepy. Not to say all of his fans are like that, but the overwhelming majority of them are.

i still love the simpsons

Babeh? Because poor literacy is.....a thing in grimdark comic booksnow. "IT'S NOT A COMIC BOOK IT'S A GRAPHIC NOVEL" SILENCE!!! This is just a bank of memes here isin't it.

I asked this question before, but what interview is that from. I'm talking about the one from 5:06-5:07

Cool

Anybody know the background music that starts at 3:02?

what does he mean johnny 1st death is there a power or is it like the kenny mcormack in south park gag

Yep thats my reaction to it too when my friend shown it to me. I thought she was crazy but then I saw Lenore the cute little undead girl. Which compare to that its a tie between the two. And I got used to the graphic novel and all of it's violence.

Oh, JTHM. I remember being so into you in my middle school/high school years. Then college hit and I grew up. Now I cringe everytime I look through you. I do agree with your sentiments, though. Even though I think things like the "goth subculture" is inherently pretentious in many ways, people like Anne just make it even worse.

7:33 is that an irken or however you say the name of zim's race

Good summary vid. Don't give Vasquez all the credit for Invader Zim though--the reason that show was great was because of the artists who put in an illegal number of work hours to make something special. And then Vasquez got them all fired because he pissed off his bosses.

5:04-5:08 Where is that from?

i remember being goth when i was 16...but then i grew up and just enjoy whatever i want now without following the blind screamo cutter kid movement

where can i find this?

Because its Orpheus?

....did you just defend me and my fellow goths :,) Thank you

She reminds me soo much of the female characters in the Writhe and Shine webcomics series...and MANY Goths in the Chicago scene...and...I HATE MIRACLE WHIP!

Star Wars is way better
