**Bad Gateway** is a 176 page book released on July 30, 2019 by Fantagraphics. It was written and drawn by Simon Hanselmann between January 1st, 2018 and January 8th, 2019, total of 3764 work hours. HTMLflowers helped writing the story *28 Days Later*.

Simon Hanselmann’s previous three Megg & Mogg books—2014’s *Megahex*, 2016’s *Megg & Mogg in Amsterdam*, and 2017’s *One More Year*—have all been international best sellers that have cemented Hanselmann as one of the most exciting graphic novelists of his generation. *Bad Gateway* is the magnum opus that those three books have been building towards, as Megg and Mogg’s fraught relationship careens into psychological depths that Hanselmann has previously only hinted at.

## Synopsis

Perpetually drunk and high, lovable degenerates Megg and Mogg have drifted through a life full of raucous antics and free of consequences. But their heavy drug use, once a gateway to adventure, has begun to take a grim psychological toll. As her unstable lifestyle finally catches up to her, Megg must turn to her past to uncover the roots of her self-destructive habits that have led her down this dark path.

“Minihex. "Rare shit" "Owl's Room" Drawn late 2008. First appearance of Owl. Yeah, this one's a bit fucked. Don't fucking tweet at me about it, it was eight years ago.

"Xmas 2017" Drawn 2012 at HTMLFlowers Christmas party and posted on Tumblr. Werewolf Jones's death in 2017 is canon but it might go down a bit differently than depicted here. Stay healthy.

Werewolf Jones & Sons Deluxe Summer Fun Annual

## Synopsis

Werewolf Jones, drugged up to his eyeballs, believes he is the world's greatest father, which is the most far-from-the-truth, deluded thought ever thought by any thinker. Parents can learn a lot about what NOT to do as a guardian by observing as Werewolf Jones deals with bullying, his own inebriation and sex addiction, his children's blossoming sexuality, running out of alcohol in a recession, and coping with the kids when he “wasn't meant to be responsible for the little fuckers tonight.”
Featuring fun appearances by beloved friends of the family such as Megg, Mogg, and Owl, not to mention Dracula Jr. and Tim the drug dealing spider. The “WWJ&Sons DSFA” will surely leave you confused, angry, upset, heavily triggered and wishing you could call Child Protective Services on a fictional werewolf!
Put together with lots of love by Simon Hanselmann and rising underground star and franchise newcomer, Josh Pettinger (Goiter, Power Wash). Pettinger has been diligently screened with a full state police check and is a staunch British monarchist, fully qualified for such a throwback, Britannia-flavored project. Get ready for one of the hottest summers on record (not merely due to rising climate-based anomalies)!

## Trivia

- Initially, the book would be released on July 18h, 2023, but was later postponed to August 1st of the same year.

Megg, Mogg & Owl

**Megg, Mogg & Owl** is a comic series created by the cartoonist Simon Hanselmann in 2008. What initially was supposed to be an adult parody of the *Meg and Mog* children books turned out to be a world-renowned series that now spans more than ten years.

The series features appearances on the New York Times best seller list, translations into 15 languages, an *Angoulême* award and numerous *Eisner* and *Ignatz* nominations. It is currently published by Fantagraphics.

## Synopsys

Megg the witch, Mogg, her cat boyfriend, and Owl — their *straight man* roommate, an actual owl — spend most of their time on the couch enveloped in a hazy cloud of pot smoke. That is, when they’re not made accessories to the raucous misadventures of their wildcard friend Werewolf Jones, an agent of chaos. What first appears to be a deadpan stoner comedy transcends the genre, as these characters struggle to come to grips with their depression, drug use, sexuality, poverty, lack of ambition, and their complex feelings about one another. Combining irreverent humor, pathos, and a warmhearted core, Simon Hanselmann’s graphic novel series is eminently relatable to readers worldwide.

## Animated Show

In 2013, Simon jokingly stated in an interview that he wanted a live action TV show for the characters, with Lindsay Lohan as "Megg", cat puppet voiced by Nick Bakay, Eddie Murphy in an Owl suit and special guest Robert Downey Jr. as "Werewolf Jones".

In the *Crisis Zone* director's comentary, Simon says that in 2020 he was working with some producers, but they were being weirdly evasive and he had a lot of concerns about the script that was being written. *"One of those millionaire Hollywood 'comedians'"* was brought in to write the script but communication broke down, which seemed to be the fault of the producers and executives. Once he finally saw the script, he says he was horrified. Bland new characters have been inserted, Owl has turned into a generic *Tinder bro*, Megg and Mogg were now *"cutesy morons that talked like woke drama queens"*. They gave Megg superpowers and made her 400 years old, a political activist who had "marched at Salem".

Simon tore that script apart and says it was one of the most enjoyable things he's ever done. He then got out of the deal, legally. *"It's not about the money, it's about making honest art, it's about the horror and squalor of existence"*, he says. After this, he had a meeting with *"one of the major studios"* and says it was fine. He point blank said the only way there would ever be a Megg and Mogg TV show is if he is the sole writer of the production, that he would be in charge. A while later, they sent him an email and he just haven't gotten back to them. Simon thinks that he just likes making comics and that he's too used to having full control. *"Comics are better than TV"*, he says.

In 2022, Simon announced an episode directed and produced by himself on the *The Paloni Show! Halloween Special!*, a TV show produced by Justin Roiland and Ben Bayouth, with characters from the *Megg, Mogg & Owl* comics, called *Megahex, Devil’s Night*.
Ian

**Ian** is a recurring character in *Megg, Mogg & Owl*. He's friends with Werewolf Jones and is always seen with Dracula Junior.

## Appearance

Ian is an anthropomorphic bear who wears nothing but a sleeveless jean jacket. He doesn't wear pants or underwear, even though his penis can be seen clearly. Ian has a protruding tooth.
Marie

**Marie** is Megg's therapist and is terrible at it. She also does couple's therapy and "spiritual dabbling massage".

Marie spends most of her sessions talking about herself, instead of listening to her patients. She arrives late, eats lunch during her session and constantly interrupts them.

## Biography

In the late 80s, Marie used to date a girl which, according to her, Megg reminds her of. She says that she loved her more than anything.
Fire

**Fire** is a short single-page *Megg, Mogg & Owl* comic story and the first story included in the Megahex collection.

## Plot

Megg, Mogg and Owl are smoking on a bong in The House's shed. Owl takes a hit and lays down after experiencing the weed's effects. Megg jokingly asks Mogg what would happen if they set Owl on fire and Mogg laughs. Owl tells them to stop, being unable to move since he's so high. Mogg asks Megg the same question and Owl tells them again to stop. They continue to laugh and Megg asks the same question, this time to Owl himself, but is interrupted by him telling them to "fuck off". However, the duo doesn't stop clicking the lighters in front of Owl, teasing him.

The brutality of the American healthcare system left Grant and his family robbed of time, money, and health. Now, governments worldwide – including the American and Australian ones – are attempting to create structures that will make healthcare even harder to access. Grant’s life expectancy is 35 years of age. Across decade plus collection of his comics, zines, art showings and writings he has been trying to make one point: Medicine for pay is eugenics.

Farooq

**Farooq** is the former owner of the Halloween City store in the Crisis Zone timeline. He briefly appears going after Desi after she stole from his store. Farooq loses her out of sight and a couple ask him what happened, to which he responds that "that little boy" stole from him. The two get disgusted from him getting her gender wrong and quickly get their phones to post on social media about him being transphobic.

His store ends up closing and when he arrives home, his wife, Malika, a muslim woman, says she's leaving him because she can't be in a marriage with a white supremacist, taking their little daughter with her.
Hamburglar Mask

The **Hamburglar Mask** is a plastic mask Mogg got from Werewolf Jones in Halloween. It is a mask with the face of the character Hamburglar from the *McDonald's* franchise.

Jones also had other masks of characters from *McDonaldland* and gave them to Owl and Jones himself: Birdie the Early Bird and Grimace. A Ronald McDonald mask was also given to Megg.

## History

The mask was given to Mogg in Halloween by Werewolf Jones when the gang went around the city asking for food or money, similar to what kids usually do in halloween. Originally, the masks were intended to be for Jones's sons, Jaxon and Diesel.

Later on in the comics, Mogg is seen wearing the same mask a couple times. In Bad Gateway, Mogg is seen masturbating with a dildo while wearing the Hamburglar mask, and at the end of Amsterdam, he wears the mask while sitting next to Megg to make her less unconfortable with his presence during a breakup. This is one of the rare moments where Mogg is seen showing a bit of empathy for someone.
Dracula Junior Jr.

**Dracula Junior Jr.** is the son of Dracula Junior in Crisis Zone. It is unknown if he also exists in the main timeline.

## Biography

Dracula Junior Jr. worked in the "Starbucks" of Jone's Tower, the treehouse hotel built outside of Megg, Mogg and Owl's house. While drunk on a hot tub near the Tower, Werewolf Jones accidentally set the whole building on fire, killing 38 people, including Dracula Junior Jr., in the called "Werewolf Jonestown Massacre".

## Trivia

* Simon says he created Dracula Junior Jr. just because he thought it would be funny that Dracula Junior would have a kid called Dracula Junior Jr.

**Megg & Mogg In Amsterdam and Other Stories** is a 164 page book released in April 18, 2016. Chronologically, all of the stories in this book take place during *Megahex*.

## Synopsys

Megg the witch, Mogg the cat, their friend Owl, and Werewolf Jones struggle unsuccessfully with their depression, drug use, sexuality, poverty, lack of ambition, and their complex feelings about each other. It’s a laff riot! Megg and Mogg decide to take a trip to Amsterdam for some quality couple time, although the trip gets off to a rocky start when they forget their antidepressants. They need Owl to come and help them save their relationship. But why does he have a suitcase full of glass dildos? And what will they do when they realize that the housesitting Werewolf Jones has turned their apartment into a “fuck zone”? *Megg & Mogg in Amsterdam* collects all of Simon Hanselmann’s contributions to Vice.com, the Ignatz Award-nominated short story “St. Owl’s Bay,” and other surprises that will add additional color and background for fans of *Megahex*.
Diesel

**Diesel** is one of Werewolf Jones and Susan's children. He's the brother of Jaxon and Vejonica.

## Appearance

Diesel is always seen in his werewolf form and it's not known if he can turn into a human like his parents can. His fur is blonde. He has green candy stains around his mouth and his eyes are yellow.

He's mostly seen wearing a white A-shirt, light blue shorts and black shoes with white socks.

## Personality

Diesel is generally a "horrible person", as Simon himself states. He's just like Jones in the sense that he loves chaos. He's impulsive and rarely shows remorse for his actions.

It's suggested at numerous points that both Diesel and Jaxon lash out because they're desperate for their dad's love and attention. Diesel is a fan of R. Crumb, and is deeply upset after learning about his suspicious sexual conduct from the 70's.

## Biography

Diesel broke Owl's beak at least two times, which sent him to the hospital.

In Beauty Pageant, Diesel came out to his father and brother as gay, and, surprisingly, WW said he was proud. Jaxon, however, called him a "faggot", which resulted in him getting slapped by his father.

### Criminal Record

* **Assault**
* **Attempted Murder**
	+ In Low-Income Single Father, Principal Corbett calls Jones to tell him that Diesel and Jaxon had stabbed many children at school.
	+ In Heat Wave, Diesel and Jaxon place several razor blades on the water slide of the water park, which leads to Owl's back being almost completely open up and making him lose lots of blood.
* **Hit and Run:** After almost killing Owl with the razor blades on the water slide, Diesel, Jaxon, WW, Megg and Mogg run away to their homes to not get caught.
* **Mugging:** Diesel and Jaxon attacked and then robbed kids at the water park.
* **Theft**
* **Vandalism**

* About Diesel and Jaxon, Simon Hanselmann states that *"I know what happens to them when they’re like teenagers and older. I plan very far ahead with these characters, I’m always thinking about them."*

Arriving at the backyard of the house, they see a bunch of kids with their parents at the party, some teenagers, an inflatable bouncy castle, a horse and two snack tables. Peyote introduces Owl to her friends and takes him to her room. Peyote's room has a dream catcher mandala and a big Justin Bieber poster on the walls, which makes Owl a bit suspicious. They start making out in her bed but only a few moments later she says they should stop and get back to the party, which they do. When they get to the backyard, a middleaged man angrily asks Peyote where she has been and grabs her by her hand. They head to the center of the yard, he grabs a microphone and calls everyone's attention, announcing that his daughter, Peyote, is turning thirteen and starts making a speech. She winks at Owl, who is clearly freaked out and can only scream "*Fuck!*" and run away with Megg and Mogg. Both of them calmly reveal that they already knew Peyote was thirteen and say it was pretty obvious and that they were pretty creeped out. Owl is desperate and feels deeply ashamed, saying he wishes he was dead.

**Megahex** is a 200 page book that collects several Simon Hanselmann's *Megg, Mogg & Owl* comics.

## Synopsis

Megg is a depressed, drug-addicted witch. Mogg is her black cat. Their friend, Owl, is an anthropomorphized owl. They hang out a lot with wild card Werewolf Jones. This may sound like a pure stoner comedy, but it transcends the genre: these characters struggle unsuccessfully to come to grips with their depression, drug use, sexuality, poverty, lack of work, lack of ambition, and their complex feelings about each other in ways that have made Megg & Mogg sensations on Hanselmann's Girl Mountain Tumblr. This is the first collection of Hanselmann's work, featuring all of the "classic" Megg & Mogg episodes from the past five years as well as over 70 pages of all-new material.
Boston Clanger

'*Boston Clanger* is a *Megg, Mogg & Owl* comic story included in the One More Year collection. It is the th story in the book.

## Plot

It's WWJ’s birthday. Him, Megg, and Mogg are drinking in Owl’s room when Owl asks them to leave. The gang, however, requests a *Boston Clanger* (to defecate on a “dingdong’sh” pillow). After WWJ says that he didn’t get a single present and that his mom got diagnosed with cancer, while also promising the poop will be dry and they'll clean it afterwards, Owl gives him permission. With that, Diesel and Jaxon come in and defecate all over Owl’s bed. Owl demands that WWJ cleans it up but since WWJ didn’t get to do his *clanger*, he calls the deal off. Everyone leaves as Owl cleans his own bed and sheets while singing the theme song of *Frasier* to himself.

Water Park

The **Water Park** first appeared in Heat Wave. Mike used to work there as a lifeguard.

There's a secret room with a window to one of the pools where some employees, including Mike, go to see women and jerk off.

There is a two-way mirror in the boy's showers that connects to Ivan's office, who is the park manager. After Werewolf Jones accidentally slipped and broke the mirror, Ivan was seen masturbating while looking at the showers and was quickly arrested right after.

Diesel and Jaxon glued razors into the water slide, which hurt Owl really bad, cutting through his entire back and a bit of his head. Gladly, the water slide was closed and nobody else got hurt.
