Conceived in the 1990s, Hate follows the everyday travails of Gen X slacker Buddy Bradley and the losers, schemers, and romantic partners in his orbit. Part screwball comedy, part soap opera, part loose autobiography, Hate is an enduring chronicle of Seattle’s ’90s grunge milieu and related subcultures. This bestselling alt comic is at once a nostalgic treasure for those who came of age around the turn of the 21st century and riotously relatable to anyone bumbling through their twenties.
