REVIEW SCORE 9
Dr. Wirtham's #9 is also a double-sided comic book, but this time it is only considered one issue instead of two. The book contains 60 pages of solid contributions from the likes of Mike Roberts, Jay Kinney and Ed Watson. Highlights include Gary Dumm and Greg Budgett's delightful "The Complete Videots," Joe Zabel's ephemeral tale about two sisters, "A Vacant Lot," and Watson's morbidly perverse "Illustrated Detective Stories." There is also a nice sampling of one-page erotic pin-up art that ranges from the sublime to the bizarre.
