Bachelor Girl’s Mother Goose<\/strong><\/p>\n

If you read an intro for a comic that states that it was conceived while the author was miles away from home, alone and suffering from swine flu, you would probably be right to assume that it would be a little… odd.\u00c2\u00a0 There may be exceptions, but it seems like a pretty safe bet.\u00c2\u00a0 This one definitely falls under that category, as Amy takes her Bachelor Girl characters and puts them in situations involving a series of nursery rhymes.\u00c2\u00a0 I think at least a few of these were original works, but I’m not familiar enough with nursery rhymes to say that for sure; maybe she just plucked a few really obscure rhymes from the void.\u00c2\u00a0 Anyway, the end result is that pretty much every nursery rhyme you can think of (go ahead, let your mind wander and allow a few to pop into your brain) show up on these pages.\u00c2\u00a0 Wee Willie Winkle, Georgie Porgie, Humpty Dumpty, Little Miss Muffet, Little Bo Peep, Peter Piper, Jack Sprat, they’re all here.\u00c2\u00a0 It’s funnier than you may think if you’re as cynical as I am, and Amy shows remarkable self-restraint at not turning even one of these vaguely pornographic sounding rhymes into anything all that risque.\u00c2\u00a0 Suggestive, sure, but that just adds to the funny.\u00c2\u00a0 As a single man somewhere in his 30’s, this isn’t exactly targeted at me, but whoever can’t enjoy a book like this has lost all their sense of fun.\u00c2\u00a0 Check it out, why don’t you, or get a copy for your single friend or relative.\u00c2\u00a0 Not your girlfriend\/wife\/mistress though, as it makes the single life look like way too much fun and they’ll probably dump your ass…\u00c2\u00a0 $5<\/p>\n
