☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeThis sixth volume of Peter Bagge's 'Hate' series collects issues #16–20, following slacker antihero Buddy Bradley as he navigates the trials of early adulthood, including a move to Seattle and the chaotic fallout of his personal and professional life. The collection features Bagge's signature exaggerated cartooning and sharp social satire, capturing the grunge-era angst of the 1990s with a mix of humor and pathos.
Buddy Bradley finds himself caught between his usual misfit crew and a full-blown crisis when Stinky returns to town with a wild new energy—and a dangerously bad idea. With Butch, Jimmy Foley, Jay, and the rest of the usual suspects egging him on, Buddy must navigate a chaotic web of half-baked plans, questionable alliances, and the ever-present shadow of his mom’s disapproval, all while trying to keep his head above water.
In "Buddy Cleans House," Buddy Bradley hits a low point—literally and figuratively—when a moment of clarity strikes him amid the chaos of his usual routine. Meanwhile, Stinky and Butch crank up the absurdity at the beach with a real gun and questionable judgment, setting off a chain of events that only the twisted logic of this world could sustain.
A Day in the Life of Buddy Bradley follows a chaotic Monday at Buddy’s store, where his sister Babs and her kids drop by unexpectedly, adding to the usual mix of distractions. With Joel, Jay, and Sally from the nearby Starbucks stopping by—and Jay making no secret of his interest—Buddy tries to keep things together while navigating family, flirtation, and the usual absurdities of small-town life.
Buddy Bradley’s latest attempt at romance hits a wall when he bails on a second date with Nicole, fleeing in panic before he can say the words that might finally set him straight. As usual, his usual mix of awkward charm and self-sabotage lands him in deeper emotional quicksand, with Sherrill, Babs, Alexis, Sally, and even Betty Bradley all caught in the fallout. It’s a painfully familiar spiral of missteps, misjudgments, and one very confused waiter.
In "Let's Get It On!", Buddy Bradley finds himself unexpectedly drawn to Lisa in the bustling heart of New York City, where a chance meeting sparks a whirlwind of tension and chemistry. As their friendship deepens into something more, the sudden news of Lisa’s pregnancy throws their budding connection into uncharted territory—leading Buddy to make a bold move that could change everything.
