4 Stars
I picked up Kaptara for a multitude of reasons: (1) The liburrrrrry didn’t have Howard the Duck; (2) John Waters blurbed it; and (3) Sam hated it. Now, I don’t make a habit of requesting things Sam hates, but since he hates almost everything sometimes it happens. It also confirmed that I most definitely have the mentality of a 12-year old because I thought this was full of hardy-hars.
It started on the very first page . . .
Between the uniforms and the “get your pump on” commentary only one thing came to mind . . .
So it didn’t end up being a story about an ambiguously gay duo, but I still chuckled at even non-funny things since my mind never leaves the gutter . . .
Turns out those asteroids are pretty bad mammajammas which cause the ship to crash on an alien planet where our MC Keith is nearly murdered by a dude named Skullthor . . .
Luckily a Khal Drogo looking mah fah is there to save the day and bring our MC Keith back to his queen . . .
Unfortunately, he’s also joined by the queen’s son . . .
And learns that Earth will be destroyed unless Kaptara does something about it. His reaction????
(ORDER THE FARKIN’ HOWARD THE DUCK ALREADY, LIBRARIAN!)
Then some stuff and things happen that cause Keith to rethink things and join in on the good fight. He gets a chance to meet some of my relatives . . .
And turns tricks on them when they ask for help murdering Gandalf . . .
Other stuff and things happen, including Weekend at Bernie’s references and an offer for a guy who looked like this . . .
To aid Keith’s sleep by using his “love hand” . . . .
Oh god. I love lowbrow humor.
So you might lose a few brain cells while reading this, but come on laughing is good! It’s summertime - Lower your standards and have some fun : )
