Viz is a comic book that has a very adult twist from the normal conventions. It took the standard formate for comics but added a dark humour to it so that it would appeal to the older generation. It storylines were usually very dark, crude, incorporated puns and old celebrities to make fun of. The comic was created by Chris Donald in 1979 along side his brother and friend. Which started out as just a a few copies being made in his bedroom to in the late 80's and 90's suddenly taking off and selling lots of copies.
All the sketches are very simple and basic but it relies on its humour. However i really like the simpleness of the sketches as i think it makes it easier to read and follow, Which is something i think my comic is lacking as the colors are to busy and complex.
Heres some example of the sketches...
