Oh my god, what a cluster fuck.

Like seriously, I've listened to a lot of interviews with Grant Morrison, I liked his Wonder Woman Year One and Flex Mentallo books, I'm currently making my way through the Doom Patrol omnibus, I like the dude a lot and I think he's on some next dimensional shit, but this just was too much.

I could kinda tell at times what he was going for, but I think it just missed the mark for me. My least favorite of his work so far.

Note: There is a hardcover version of this book (the one I own), however this edition isn't on GoodReads for some reason.

Garrett You think this was to much but you don’t think Doom Patrol was to much? If that’s the case I need to read this!


Siona Adams I think Doom Patrol is a lot, but I can understand what’s going on and follow a coherent story. I can’t say the same about The Filth lol

Ill D "Cluster fuck," that's a pretty apt description of The Filth.

Bravo
