Joe Zombie as a series is well over 15 years old, this one's around the age of 12. Goddamn, doesn't time just fly right past us?
Age long waiting aside, the film holds up really well. Baxter's death could have been entirely avoided if he had shot Joe in the cage to begin with, and then all that info was shown in a flashback, but I could take a guess that it was mainly done for dramatic cliffhanger purposes. For a really long time, I thought Joe looking like a midget compared to Baxter was an error, and then I realized that's his actual size. Joe is actually just a goddamn gremlin, and I love it.
That first thing is just a nitpick. Joe might not be talked about in general Newgrounds conversation that much anymore, but I think this having a place just a few pages into the Classics section is well deserved.
