Hipsters in Hell (2014)

May 24, 2014 By Professor Elizabeth Coggeshall

hipsters webcomic vom baur
“The Hipsters in Hell storyline is the perfect way to end the series. Leo dies, and a distraught Nike charges through the gates of Hell to find him. What they discover is patterned after Dante’s Inferno, only specialized for hipsters. There are punishments for wearing vintage tees that were bought new and at full price — then lying that they were picked up at a thrift shop. Women who got those mustache tattoos on their fingers get tossed in a mud pit with the men for having ironic mustaches.”   –Larry Cruz, “I was into Hipsters before it got a book,” Comic Book Resources, May 21, 2014
