			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I find myself somewhat at a loss for this review. As you&#8217;ve seen in previous reviews, I generally spend the first paragraph rambling about some odd topic that serves to segue into the review itself. But this week&#8217;s comic leaves me at something of a nonplus. So I suppose I&#8217;ll have to set aside the expository banter.*</p>
<p>Here, then, is a comic called <i><a href="http://www.currhue.com/">Currhue</a></i>, submitted by its creator, who calls himself <a href="http://kloob.deviantart.com/">Kloob</a>. It is a strange comic, a baffling comic. A comic that moves swiftly from <a href="http://www.currhue.com/?p=5">awkward flirting</a> to <a href="http://www.currhue.com/?p=15">murder</a> and <a href="http://www.currhue.com/?p=22">sworn revenge</a>, which is all promptly <a href="http://www.currhue.com/?p=30">swept under the rug</a> for a plot involving <a href="http://www.currhue.com/?p=35">future alien dinosaurs</a> and the <a href="http://www.currhue.com/?p=195">reckless bounty hunters</a> who attack them. And also the bounty hunters are <a href="http://www.currhue.com/?p=220">nuclear robots</a>.</p>
<p>Awkward flirting aside, this sounds a lot like my five-year-old nephew telling me what his afternoon at day care was like.</p>
<p>Kloob is capable of some pretty decent <a href="http://www.currhue.com/?p=216">art</a>, all things considered, which makes it rather baffling that he depicts human characters as <a href="http://www.currhue.com/?p=23">spindly little homunculi</a>. This actually ruins one joke, wherein Albert is <a href="http://www.currhue.com/?p=42">supposed to be naked</a>, but he looks no different from when he&#8217;s clothed, save for the absence of a line or two.</p>
<p>I honestly can&#8217;t yet fathom <i>Currhue</i>. It&#8217;s still a bit too sparse to make any overwhelming judgments based on what disjointed snippets of plot I can put together. The quickly-discarded extras feel like side characters from an Adam Sandler movie, and the art is just intentionally ugly enough to put me off. The whole comic feels a bit like a fever dream, and I think I&#8217;d rather sweat it out.</p>
<p><b>Comic Rating:</b> Two enormous hands.</p>
<p><span style="font-size:smaller">* Now we review this comic <a href="http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Gilgamesh">like men! And ladies! And ladies who dress like men!</a></span></p>
