The Perry Bible Fellowship is the perfect middle between the whimsical and the dark humor. And it has been since 2001 when its creator Nicholas Gurewitch drew the first dark comics. Nicholas describes his style as "the clarity of obscurity," and his work is a real treat to all the twisted humor aficionados.
Usually consisting of three or four panels, the webcomics have originated in the Syracuse University newspaper The Daily Orange. The darkly funny drawings tackle difficult topics head-on, and some of the most common themes include irony, religion, sexuality, war, science fiction, suicide, violence, and death.
"Sometimes I look at my work and think that it shows the idealism of my Dad colliding with the realism of my Mom," Gurewitch told Things In Squares. "Or, I see the idealism of my Mom colliding with the realism of my Dad. The idea of the "real" colliding with the “ideal” in these plot twists have been suggested to me by many artists."
Now, scroll down below to feed your weird sense of humor with these superbly cool drawings by Nicholas!

I thought the clouds were pooping at first, but I like this ending better.

Yeah I saw that coming. In a dark comic series rainbow happy cloud swings are not going to end well

As a wheelchair user I did not find this funny. I guess I an just good for a sacrifice to Abe ok volcano because no one else will accept me? Insensitive and ableist. Yes I know someone who has full us of their legs is going to say I missed the point.

I wear glasses, which allow me to see well enough that everybody, wheelchair or not, was being dropped in the volcano. How did you miss that?

And that's the reason why you should never judge someone, defending his own property.

I keep getting the impression that this artist wants to be the next Gary Larson(The Far Side). But for some reason, he ends up with a bit too much of the 'macabre' and not enough 'delicious irony' to keep people wanting more. :O
Mr. Serious 7 years ago
Nope ... anybody doing more than one panel is not ever trying to emulate Larson. Try again to be interesting (at least it would be interesting to see how you fail to pull it off).

Haha. I used to deliver the Daily Orange on campus back in 2002. Best part of the job was reading the newest PBF on our route. I bought the book that they put out years ago. So psyched to see it here on Bored Panda.

Two duplicates but most were pretty good. Some made absolutely NO sense to me tho.

Some of these I really don't get. What's up with the book couple? "You're the only one who understands me!" Then they see something on the table and she storms out. What did she see that ticked her off so much?
