What people are saying about The Adventures of Barry Ween, Boy Genius:

“Brilliant, crisp dialogue unlike anything mere mundane humans have ever spoken. Clever twists and turns to plots that are already pleasantly Byzantine. A genius craft for cartooning.”

Mark Waid
writer of Kingdom Come and Empire

“Really funny! Winick infuses Barry Ween with Calvin and Hobbes-style timing but still manages to keep an underground edge. Best new humor book in years!”

Jeff Smith
creator of Bone

“I can pretty much count on giving Barry Ween a 10 before I even crack the covers. It's consistently hilarious, taking event movie premises and giving them outrageous humor twists…Winick does imaginative one-panel gags and great running jokes throughout….”

Randy Lander

“Judd is one of the few creators that can have me nearly pee my pants from laughing so hard, even with an empty bladder. If you haven't already picked up Barry Ween and fallen in love with the characters' wonderfully crass humor and obvious sensitivity then your life is probably as empty and pathetic as it deserves to be.”

Chynna Clugston-Major
creator of Blue Monday

“BW is an interesting mix of cartoon buffoonery and adult tinged extremity…Call it smart and witty, if you will.”

Spence Abbot
Scifi.IGN.com

“If asked if Barry Ween would save the world or destroy it, I'd bet on the latter... Winick is an genuine talent. His dialogue is funny and real, his pacing is excellent, and his drawings are wonderful. I got into his stories quickly and laughed out loud as I read them.”

Tony Isabella's Journal

“BARRY WEEN is CALVIN and HOBBES on PCP with a copy of Mein Kampf thrown into the mix. Barry will take comics by storm and tomorrow the world!”

Garth Ennis
(PREACHER, HITMAN)

“Judd has added another facet to the jewel of diversity in the wonderful world of comics.Terrifically unique, profanely charming and full on hilarious.”
