His female characters occasionally get raped too, but for them it's portrayed as a harrowing and traumatic experience, and the rapist usually comes to a well-deserved bad end.

They usually find it upsetting, but eventually get over it and often end up in a loving relationship with the woman. Double Standard Rape: Female on Male: Mellick's male characters very frequently get raped (or else strongly pressured into sex) by powerful, terrifying women.Cute Monster Girl: So common in his fiction that for almost all his books, one of them serves as the Face on the Cover.The stories that don't end like that are likely to have massive Downer Endings. Babies Ever After: If a story has a moderately happy ending, there's likely to be an epilogue where the protagonist has settled down with their love interest and had children.Sometimes it seems to be telling the truth, sometimes it veers into absurdity, like claiming that one particular story was hard to write because Mellick's computer kept biting his hands off. Author Avatar: Many of his books has a short comic in place of the afterword, where one of these talks about the story and the process of writing it.He really likes sexy, terrifying monster girls. Author Appeal: Mellick likes punk, Japanese pop culture and nerdy pastimes like D&D.General Tropes associated with this author include: Barbarian Beast Bitches Of The Badlands.Every Time We Meet at the Dairy Queen, Your Whole Fucking Face Explodes.This is still a good read, a classic that any Bizarro fan should check out at least once.

CM3 has written a lot of books since Satan Burger so obviously he has improved during his career. This books not without its issues, one being the voice seems to jump around a bit at times, but I think it helps to go into this book knowing that it was one of his first published books, written over ten years ago. He creates some great characters too, from our narrator Leaf with his acid ocean eyes to Satan, the homosexual who brings everything he touches to life, to Gin, the dead guy with the living body parts.

It really shows the almost limitless imagination Carlton has, he crammed a lot of different ideas into the 236 pages. It stayed on my radar though, and a few weeks ago I finally got a copy. I read quite a few books from the genre before I finally got to a CM3 book, but it still wasn’t Satan Burger. It ended up not being this book, or any CM3 book for that matter. I don’t remember what set me to looking for it on Amazon, but I did, and I read descriptions and reviews on it and many other Bizarro books trying to figure out which one would be my first step into the Bizarro genre. Satan Burger was probably the first Bizarro book I had ever heard of. This is my review I posted to Amazon and Goodreads. I finally got a chance to sit down and read the one that started it. My Review of Carlton Mellick III’s Satan Burger
