In other news - hey some plague rats! I found another Malky Dungeon for you! I'll post it after I finish Witch Vasenka's War, that's only got a few more chapters in it. It's real short though, just 6 pages or so.

Last time on Joey's Special Experience by Hirohiko Archie: Joost follows Jack the Rapper into the darkness! To make some kind of point about Joost's upcoming fight, Cepelis tells Super Taxi a story about a West Indian fisherman who fought a shark! Joost begins exploring by torchlight, and is suddenly ambushed by Jack riding a giant metal spine-ribcage-made-of-swords-or-something contraption!

Read right to left:

I'm afraid so.
Joey’s Special Experience is my favorite thing in the thread post-Thorsby and I cannot articulate why. The machine-mistranslated dialogue and the incredibly high-concept combat design that the artist is just slightly not skilled enough to depict somehow complement each other perfectly. What the hell is that deranged spine blades thing? What the hell is anyone talking about? They’re both just close enough to comprehensible that my brain keeps trying to grab hold of them with just enough success to crave more. I’m repulsed and intrigued in perfect balance. I have connected with Fast Ambulance on a spiritual level.

It takes my brain way more effort to try and decipher Joey's Special Experience than to read anything else in the thread but it's worth it.

Joost is the son of a nobleman who adopted God for reasons. God is a villainous sort and is an rear end in a top hat to Joost. Eventually God figured out that a cool stone mask they had laying around can turn you into a vampire and transforms himself, killing Joost's dad along the way. Joost and his new friends Fast Ambulance and Baroque Cepelis go out to end God's reign of terror. God also has a few henchmen that he turned into vampires, including Jack the Rapper who Joost is currently fighting. Joost also has a girlfriend and recently learned magic martial arts from Cepelis. Now you know!

Finally the missing Malky Dungeon has been found, and just in time for Halloween. I ended up having to contact Simon Dickie over Twitter for it. This was the first (and hopefully only) time I've used Twitter for anything other than following artists, so people better be grateful for it!

Yeah, I tried to read it early on and just found it impenetrable without having read the real thing, but I do appreciate the end image every time.

Yeah I realized early on that a highlight panel would be good for a quick "haha check this out" for the folks that couldn't put in the effort to follow along, which is totally understandable. And for those who are following along, you're getting basically the same experience of anyone growing up in the early days of the internet trying to read foreign comics with poor translations.

Or tbh, even more recent attempts! The experience of reading Joey's Special Experience is extremely similar to trying to read one of the earliest fan translations of Jojo part 4, aka the Duwang translation. The short version is that someone tried to arrange for a fan translation to happen, and through a series of circumstances, the translator ended up not speaking English as a first language, and was translating from the Chinese version of the comic, with results extremely similar to Joey's Special Experience:

This is from 1947 right? Just wanna note how fresh and real the dialogue feels even now...and how different and horrible dialogue attributed to black characters have been in the 20th C and even now.

Imagine a world where this was an entire comic industry. It would have been so much better, without the laughable black representation written by people white as hell.
Yeah! I was talking about this with my friend who found it, and we were noticing the same things. I wish it had had a chance to flourish so we could see what it could have become, but I'll talk more about that when I finish posting the comic and go over what ended up happening after the volume was published.
