Absolutely spectacular I loved this soo much Gob and nob truly touched my heart, and tickled my gag reflex at the same time. Simon Mchardy you are truly a fabolous creator and artist when it comes to horror/splatterpunk and he is among one of my autobuy authors ya'll need to read this.

This is one of those moments when I am stepping into quoting "What the hell did I just read?" Now that is not something I normally do, but this was a thoroughly complete mind f**k. Well, it was for me, anyway. I can't unsee that damn talking penis!
Thank you Mr. McHardy!
I believe no one else could have wrote this. Only from your creatively twisted brain was Gob and Nob born into existence. Thank sweet mother of mercy they are not real!

It's like this...
Gob & Nob is grosser than Mother Maggot. No question in my mind. Its depraved. Its unfiltered. Its degradating. It vile. Its repulsive. Its nasty. Its cray-cray. People got killed and I laughed. People got violated and I snickered.
In a world where sentient penises don wiry wigs and fluttering capes, no rules apply any more. The fact of the matter is, you have to laugh at all this depravity. Its over the top. Its absurd. Its fun. Plus if you don't laugh you'll wind up vomiting. So just go into this with a positive frame of mind and have fun with it. Remember, its got a sentient penis.
Gob and Nob (and any Simon McHardy book for that matter) needs to be turned into a movie, directed by Tom Six. That's a dare and a challenge. Troma eat your stoma out.

OMG. This story is amazingly gross, very bizarre, and extremely entertaining! It had a lot of blood and gore, but also found myself laughing out loud at some parts of the story. Super quick, fun read. I highly recommend!

Simon McHardy takes his gonzo splatterpunk style to a brand-new extreme in this gruesome novelette, which reads like a cross between a Troma film and a Shintaro Kago comic, complete with ultra-violence and sentient genitals of vile disposition.
Gob is an obese man-child with a unique medical condition: his parasitic twin, Nob, is fused with his penis, resulting in a gigantic trouser snake of terrifying length, girth, and appearance. Unsurprisingly, the two brothers are finding it hard to lose their virginity. Their quest to get laid will take them on a gruesome journey of rape, murder, and plus-size deathmatches.
This is outrageous, gruesome fun for people with no triggers and a sick sense of humor, though even they might feel a bit dirty laughing at it – I sure did. The prose is stylish and succinct. It’s gleefully obscene and over-the-top, to the point where you can almost imagine it as a splatterpunk Looney Tunes episode. The characters, despite being vicious sex offenders, are so absurd and slapstick-ridiculous that they often emerge as disturbingly endearing. For this perverse achievement McHardy can only be applauded.
I look forward to more stories by Mr. McHardy on the subject of sentient genitalia.
