Invader Zim is in fact still good. If anything the first few issues of JTHM are more cringe worthy than any episode of Invader Zim.

I haven't read it in like 15 years but the issue where Johnny is barely in it might have been the best
it's just Devi and that bald shithead escaping Johnny's impossibly large nightmare of a house as the "moose" in the walls is just fuckign annihilating everything. the doughboys' death scene and the reveal at the end that there's literally nothing left but the house blew my 12 year old mind. my first introduction to lovecraftian horror, too

(not sure if it's worth spoiling but just in case)

Yeah JTHM got better once Jhonen realized he should hammer home the point that Johnny was in fact not cool, but rather an incredibly broken human being who is not to be emulated. Also the revelation that Nny's condition was at least partially due to malevolent supernatural causes helped. Sqee was his best comic.
