SpinOff from ''JohnnyTheHomicidalManiac'', ''Squee'' ran four issues and followed the titular next-door-neighbor-of-aforementioned-maniac as he encounters aliens and all other manner of paranormal activity.

----

!!This comic features examples of:
* AdultsAreUseless: The only adults in Squee's life are apathetic/evil/corrupt/stupid/{{Satan}}/[[JohnnyTheHomicidalManiac dangerously psychopathic]], etc. So you can imagine they're not much help.
* AbusiveParents: Squee's parents are of the horribly neglectful variety.
* AnalProbing: When the wheelchair-bound aliens try to abduct Squee again, one of the two aliens goes to his parent's room and subjects Mr. Casil to this.
* TheAntichrist: Pepito, and not trying to hide it: he has horns, and his father is not in disguise when Squee comes to visit. And then there's [[CrowningMomentOfAwesome "Stand back, amigo! This looks like a job for... THE ANTICHRIST!"]]
* BedlamHouse: ''Squee!'' has the "Defective Head Meat Institute". There's talk of [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phrenology a new phrenology department]], lobotomies, using patients as "lab monkeys" and [[FunnyBackgroundEvent a random nurse walking by thinking "Whoa! I'm the angel of death!"]]. The staff is so incompetent that they keep [[spoiler: Squee]] as a patient and let [[spoiler: ''[[AxCrazy Johnny]]'']] go free.
* BlatantLies: Squee's reaction to having his parents abducted is "I am full of guilt". While watching movies and eating snacks.
* CharacterTitle
* TheChewToy: Squee, full stop.
* TheCloudcuckoolanderWasRight: In the first issue of JohnnyTheHomicidalManiac, Johnny yells at Shmee the teddy bear as if he was sentient and stabs him. As we find out, Shmee actually is sentient.
* CrapsackWorld
* DealWithTheDevil: Offered, but averted.
* DownerEnding
* EvilTeacher: Ms. Bitters. Yep, [[InvaderZim that one]].
* FunnyBackgroundEvent: Plenty. Most notably, several panels have Johnny terrorizing various people.
* IHaveManyNames: How Pepito begins his introduction.
--> '''Pepito:''' Son of the dark prince, child of darkness. Some call me the altar boy of doom. Others will know me as the second coming of damnation. [[CrowningMomentOfFunny My mom calls me]] [[SomeCallMeTim Pepito.]]
* ImprobableWeaponUser: At the "Defective Head Meat Institute", [[spoiler:Johnny]] says to a dream-studying scientist that he dreamed about killing her with a bag of ramen noodles.
* HappilyMarried: Pepito's parents seem to be this...despite the fact that his father is ''Satan.'' Subverted with Squee's parents, who are still together but with obvious instability between them.
* HilariouslyAbusiveChildhood: Pretty much Squee's life story, though [[TheWoobie it's not always hilarious.]]
* InterspeciesRomance: Señor Diablo and his wife (Pepito's mother) could count as this. Also, one of the Meanwhile comics features a guy [[AliensMadeThemDoIt forced to mate with a chicken]] so that his aliens captors can research [[DidNotDoTheResearch human sexual encounters]]. To make matters worse, it's revealed that the man eventually marries the chicken and has [[HalfHumanHybrid kids]] with her.
* KidsAreCruel: Squee tends to be bullied mercilessly by every kid he ever meets for no apparent reason. The only exception is Pepito, who's fairly nice to Squee. Too bad he has a nasty habit of melting his other classmates faces' off, but at least he's nice to Squee.
* MadEye: As per a [[JhonenVasquez Jhonen Vasquez]] production, Squee is depicted with one after Pepito blows up the school to save Squee from zombies.
* NoNameGiven: Ms. Bitters is never addressed as such.
* NightmareSequence: [[OnceAnEpisode Once every issue]], there's a page devoted to "Dreamtime", which is basically a page of Squee's horrific nightmares.
* OnlySaneMan: Squee himself.
* PayEvilUntoEvil: Squee arranging for his abusive parents to get kidnapped by aliens.
** Although before that he seemed quite convinced that hurting them would be wrong.
** But yet...[[BlatantLies "I am full of guilt."]]
* ToiletHumor: Tons of it. Special mention goes to the unseen man in the restaurant bathroom stall in Issue Two. ''[[ScreamDiscretionShot Holy]] [[HighOctaneNightmareFuel shit.]]''
* {{Transplant}}: The stupid, wheelchair-bound aliens show up to abduct [[InvaderZim Zim]], whose teacher (Ms. Bitters) is also Squee's teacher. The horned, purple aliens are revealed in ''Zim'' to be residents of the planet Vort, which is conquered by the Irkens. The big one, however, is Zim himself, who shows up on various posters in Squee's room.
* UnnamedParent: Both of Squee's.
** Pepito's mother.
* WeCanRuleTogether: [[{{Satan}} Señor Diablo]] offers Squee a position in {{Hell}}. He politely declines.
* WeirdnessMagnet: Squee.
