"No matter how hard he tries, Jimmy Yee cannot die. A noose around his neck, a razor across his wrist, and even a bullet to his head all yield the same results: he awakes from each suicide attempt, miraculously unharmed, in his shabby room at the Sunbeam Motel. Has he gone mad? Or has he truly died and found himself in hell? Jimmy is willing to tear the world down around him to get at the truth. Highly analytical and utterly unscrupulous, he is uniquely suited to unraveling this bizarre mystery. From the brilliant and profane mind of Jason Shiga, known for his high-concept graphic novels, comes Demon: a four-volume magnum opus about the unspeakable chaos that one indestructible man can unleash on the world and the astronomical body count he leaves behind"--Provided by publisher.… (meer)

reviewed from uncorrected egalley.

graphic novel. NOT FOR KIDS. Clever and original new series that will make you root for the main character, even though he's horrible. ( )

Yeah, I needed this. I forget why I put it on hold in the first place, but I'm happy that past-kate was on the ball. This is a hilariously dark book about a guy who learns that when his body dies, his consciousness just moves into the next person over. Jimmy gets pretty adept (and real creative) at killing himself, it's pretty impressive. I'm rooting for him through his blatant disregard for human life. ( )

Shiga's artwork is just a little too goofy for me, but it can't hinder a story that is irresistibly over-the-top amoral and violent. It seems like anything can happen here, and I'm ready to follow the saga to the end. ( )

Reminded me of [book:JTHM: Director's Cut (Johnny the Homicidal Maniac) JTHM: Director's Cut|19567410], but slightly less dark and definitely funnier. Still incredibly violent. ( )

Literary Merit: It won an Eisner?
Characterization: Okay
Recommend: No
Level: ADULTS

I am a little confused by this book. This book should not go into any children's or teen collection. It belongs in an adult graphic novel collection. There is violence, graphic sexual content (including sex with animals in the 3rd volume), language, and a character that continually commits suicide to body jump. The story is about an adult male that realizes he is a demon and can body jump by committing suicide over and over. I ended up reading all three volumes of this because I was intrigued by the premise it felt like Deathnote mixed with a bryan o'malley comic. However, it is has very adult content. So be aware of this before you buy it. ( )
